Porsche yellow! (just kidding!)

I'd say for the calipers, either red, black, or silver... if you go with red, it doesn't have to be an exact match; only a close match... calipers are far enough away from your body that you won't be able to tell minute differences in color shades, and rims will help break up the color even more so it's harder to differentiate between colorshades.

For the drums, I'd say go with black... I hate when people paint their drums bright colors.. it just looks ricey.

Usually red is best if you want to drop three to four seconds off your quarter mile times.
