Nickel Firebird pick up surrounds.

I have a 91 firebird. and I have Duncan Antiquities in it. There is a slight gap, but that's not really the problem The fact that they have the aged nickel on the pickups and the modern chrome. looks bad. I have been looking for pickup surrounds, but none of them seem to match the whole and size layout of the stock Gibsons. They're all about a millimeter off here or there.. So is there any source for a nickel pickup ring that would fit a modern Gibson Firebird? Ideally it would have a smaller internal diameter to match up with the Duncan sized pickup but that's probably asking too much. Period. Now I've been told that various companies make the nickel pick up brings. But when I actually look at the diagrams and measure with the calipers, nothing seems to line up exactly right with the 4 screw holes. So I'm looking for someone that's actually replace them, and they actually fit.
