I think a contrasting colour like red looks good but its all personal opinion I guess.
I would go a contrasting colour if you had some nice big wheels to show the calipers/drums off better. |

If I had nice big wheels id be trying to hide my standard brakes as much as possible. However big wheels and big brakes then I may make them stand out a little. |

red and blue clash... go with a colour that will compliment yet stand out like yellow or pink or even a grey. Black is too factory.. personally i like yellow with blue... stands out and they dont clash and look ugly _________________
