Question Caliper colour?

Hi everyone just want some ideas from you what colour to paint my calipers on my ERST as you can see my car is white with Anthracite compomotive alloys, at the moment the calipers are black front and back.
ERST front calipers with cossie discs and cossie rear brakes.
What do you think, stay the same or change colour?
