What color to paint calipers?

I got a set of rear discs off of an LT1 car and before putting them on, I was going to paint them. They look like crap now. What color? You can see my car in my website. I really have no clue what color will look good. Thanks

I did mine in yellow (against the black paint job) and it looks real sharp. But I'm gonna redo them in red when I get around to it.. I say go with what you like, but I prefer good contrasting colours..
