I'm a huge fan of color matching. I say go for it.

I'd say do what you think looks best. Afterall, it is YOUR bike.
But IMO i would keep them the color they are. That much green seems like it would be overpowering.

if your bike had more black on it I would say go for it, but looks like there is too much green. try photoshopping it first

I think the rims would look really good powder coated, but leave the belly pan how it is.

Why not green wheel stripes, and a set of green brake hoses, that would give you a bit more green, but leave a fair bit of black to break it up.
