Dilemma

I'm in a bit of a dilemma. One of the goals, although minor, of this project was to build the pickguard with individual pickups, based on David Gilmour's Black Strat. However Seymour Duncan makes a replacement pickguard containing all the correct pickups, switches, potentiometers and control knobs already assembled for $249.

I priced out the componants if I were to buy them indiviually and this is the cost I would be facing;
Fat 50 pickup                                  $80
69 pickup                                        $80
SSL 5 pickup                                   $53
black fender pick guard                     $18
White volume/tone knobs                  $6
Fender 5 way wiring kit                      $30
===============================
Total (before shipping and tax):          $267

The primary goal of this project was to keep overall cost down.  But If I purchase the per-assembled pickguard that would be the last purchased piece for this project.

Anyone care to voice an opinion?
