Red would be the safest and cleaner choice...

Yellow if you're feeling brave and want to stand out a little.

I think either would work very well with your car though.

Honestly I'm thinking orange. That is what I'd do for my car.

Here is the order I'd consider if I were you:

Orange
Red
Lime Green
Yellow
Black

Car looks great btw as it sits.

You have to think ahead and see what other mods you are going to add... My theme is Sliver and Black, I was adding lots of CF parts with the black headlights and grill, with little touch of red ( my IM is red led ) on my exterior. So I am getting my caliper powder coated candy red( two tone ) and I will have pictures within 2 - 3 weeks on the car. I also went with RED because I have red interior and in engine bay. Good luck with your color but you can't go wrong with red IMO. ^^

red is so played out its ridiculous. I am going to paint mine soon also. I drive a OB G37 Coupe and im probably doing mine orange. That is just my opinion. I see about 15 cars with red brake calipers a day and id say about 10 of those people are kids that did a horrible job. Red would look nice but your car will look just like everyone else's car.

You drive a white car a lot of colors match it don't do red
I disagree with the comment that red makes you look like a ricer
It's just that every single person had red brakes. Do something different. I personally think your car looks nice as is great job
