go for it, red painted calipers look good with almost any color. i personally like it better than trying to color-match calipers with paint. it almost never matches just right. with the red, you even get the look of brembo...could be classified as ricey since they are not brembo but look like it but it really stands out and looks great, even if it's not accompanied by aftermarket rims, tires, and dropped suspension.

oh, and your color scheme doesn't have to be red to do red calipers. i've seen lots of nice show cars that have red calipers with black, maroon, green, yellow, and lots of other stock body colors and color schemes. for example, my boy will's 98 eclipse gs that he has set up as a pure show car/SPL is the stock black paint color. he has red calipers and his color scheme is blue. blue led underglow, bass lights, etc. outstandingly great looking.

paint them! They will really stand out on a white car. You don't have to worry about clearing them if you are using paint specifically designed for calipers.
Not to be a post whore, look at my post count. 442! Awesome!
