Question Help with Color Scheme

Hi. I recently ordered a Carrera 4 gts cabriolet in iced grey metallic with black top and high gloss black exterior finish. Im wondering if its best to do the painted black brakes (eliminating the red) and was also between the GTS Interior with red stitching/belts and tachymeter vs the Chalk stitching/belts and tachymeter. Thoughts are appreciated thanks.

I would keep the red brakes and contrast the interior stitching in red to match and bring the theme together. The red brakes will really pop on the ice grey.

Red brakes look great with many colors. I think grey would be one of them. Race yellow, any PTS green, not so much.

My two cents: I opted for the black painted calipers because the wheels are so large, they make the rotors look small, and the red painted calipers accentuate the relative smallness of the brake rotors.
