White calipers on a white car will stand out too much. It's overdone.
Keep the calipers black, and it will subtly blend with the wheel/tire.

I second that! Black is much more subtle and it might even look like the white sticker is floating in the wheel space which can be pretty cool.

Black will be a much better look, and won't show brake dust as quickly.
Red calipers look good on a black car....not so hot on a white one.
It's so much fun to debate taste......

Neither. Just put white stickers on the existing caliper, it'll stand out but still look OEM . . .
