There are a bunch of old threads asking a similar question... might also want to mention what kind of wheels you have, how open.
I had silver on mine before, but changed to black. Silver didn't match the other colors of silver inside my wheel... always thought "too much silver going on in there".

Black is a good all-around choice. It is different enough from stock without really calling out undo attention. silver and grays are nice but there are so many shades that you have to watchout for how it interacts with other grays on the car: rotors, wheels.
With that said, I've always liked red. BUT, it really depends on the theme of the car. Red is not a classy color but very sporty. If the rest of your car (wheels, kits, exhaust, ... ) will lean towards the sporty/aggressive side, I'd say go for red. I realy only like reds on cars with the non-colors (white, silver, and black) and since you have a white car,
.
Otherwise, I vote black. (I have black.) In any case, this is all just IMHO.
