Any one know where I can get these?

Hey everyone, new to the fourm just found it online, first thread.

So I've got a 59' LP (re-issue) I bought it in 03. I've thought about alittle dressing up, but I want something my own.... which means paying for custom work. I found a company that makes custom truss rod covers and there making me one in cherry with mother of pearl inlay in my signature. The guitar is all unfinished(looking) cherry.
So now I'm thinking cherry pickup covers to match the guitar. I found pickup rings that match, but I'll probably leave them black or maybe chrome to leave some contrast. But I can't find any wood pickup covers. but I've seen them out there. anyone know where I can find these? Or any other parts.... wood or not that I can swap out with out any major work to the guitar. I'd rather not change it.
