Matching Pink WinnGrips to Pink Thread

I have a request to build a custom bass fishing rod using the Pink Winn Grips. Has anyone used this color and if so, what color thread and make did you use to match the grips. MudHole Custom Tackle suggested the ProWrap #301 or #313.

to my eye the bubble gum is as close to a perfect match and would be a good stand out with a contrasting accent wrap or the neon pink with a contrasting trim accent
light color neon chartreuse trim accent or black if the blank is black
happy building

If you asked Mudhole already, why wouldn't you take their advice?

I guess it depends on who's looking at it. With those colors, put the ball in the customers court.
