Default Polished Calipers with painted brackets

I have polished my brake calipers and now want to paint the brackets. What color should I go with? I am deciding between red and black. Car is a black ws6.
Here is the caliper although you can't see the bracket: caliper

Do you think the red would be too much with the polished caliper on a black car?

Those are sweet. I did my brackets black. I dont think red would look good with those, IMO.

If you have other red accents then red would be ok..

However I would have to go with silver or charcoal grey as the best bets..

Jantzer98SS. What did you use to get in those little half circles on the front of the caliper? I did mine a while back and never got that little spot as good as I wanted.
