Default Quick brake caliper colour question

Am painting my calipers and just on e bay looking for decals/stickers to on them once painted. Was going to do the calipers boring red any other culour ideas? Thought about all silver with red stickers, but not sure, so love gold brembo's like on the 350Z but mine are not brembo's but would it look good??? For those that dont know the car is dark purple and wheels are a dark chrome almost anthracite.

Cheers

Black ..... anything else draws attention to them and they are too ugly for that.

Replacing all my discs over Easter so thought I would paint the calipers & other bits whilst I'm there. Thought I'd go for Black.

I suggest a sort of rusty silver colour, that way they may become invisible (and thus inoffensive) as against the discs.

Black would be my second choice.
