Get your self a matching deity stem.

Your bike has too many different colors and bike companies as it is. (my personal preference)

Spread the bike love and your money, go with as many different manufacturers as possible.

choose any component you like, afterwards go to a paint job specialist shop and ask them to air brush your bike for a totally unique style (can bicycle be air brushed?)

Just remember. Too many different brands and your bike may try and beat itself up.
