Targeting StarterCharacter part(s), and changing properties?

Question

Hi there! I've been working on a sort of digital clock that the player wears on their chest. I've managed to get this to work when it's not on the character. I put the script and NumberValue in StarterCharacterScripts.

Basically what I need is for this to target the individual parts (A-G) of the custom character model, so that the + and - buttons will change the displayed value. I've only got super basic lua knowledge (which is probably obvious looking at the code), and I can't seem to figure out what to do, even after looking online, so any pointers would be very much appreciated!

local Number = script.Parent.NumberValue
local A = script.Parent.A
local B = script.Parent.B
local C = script.Parent.C
local D = script.Parent.D
local E = script.Parent.E
local F = script.Parent.F
local G = script.Parent.G



workspace.ButtonMinus.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
	Number.Value -= 1
end)


workspace.ButtonPlus.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
	Number.Value += 1
end)





while true do
	wait(0.1)
	if Number.Value == 1 then
		A.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
		A.Material = Enum.Material.Metal
		B.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
		B.Material = Enum.Material.Metal
		C.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Persimmon")
		C.Material = Enum.Material.Neon
		D.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
		D.Material = Enum.Material.Metal
		E.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Persimmon")
		E.Material = Enum.Material.Neon
		F.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
		F.Material = Enum.Material.Metal
		G.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
