I actually think it would have still looked fine with the pickups black, the decal would have still been obvious to me.
However, the orange pickups with black decal will make it look loads more professional. Attention to detail never fails impress.
Check it out!

+1Looks great!! congrats!!!!
what would happen if you paint the sides of the pups black, for example the left down corner of the bridge pup, to continue the black line of the triangle when seen from below?
I didn't paint the sides of the pickups on purpose. When adjusting the height of the pickups, the line for the symbol would always be off. Does that make sense?Awesomesauce!
