Default what color for brake calipers?

I can't decide what color for my calipers.
I either want red or black with silver CAMARO on them.


In the pic it has red emblems. The new emblems will be black/silver/red
The car is white with black top and 10 spoke SS wheels silver with red chevy symbol.

The roll cage is black as well as the frame under the hood is black and conects to the cage at the front of the frame thru the fender wells.

The engine will be red, kinda like the LSX block is painted but red instead of orange. the timing chain cover is silver. valve covers silver. heads silver. headers coated silver. brake booster silver. intake silver paint with red FAST letters. coil covers black or red but leaning towards black.

I want red but I am afraid it would be too much red.
The main colors of the car are White and Black with Silver and Red as trim colors.

What do you guys think.

That does look nice.
I am now leaning towards black. I'm thinking I would do red if the wheels were chrome but that black looks good with the silver painted wheels.
