Any suggestions on what color to paint my cedar trim and shutters to complement my unpainted brick garage door?

Hey there! Just wanted to introduce myself as a new member of the group. I’m struggling to decide on a color for my garage door and could use some advice. I’m thinking of leaving the brick as is, but I’m open to painting the cedar trim and shutters. Any suggestions on what you would do in this situation?
I noticed your other post, so some of this might ring a bell! I suggest going for a cedar tone, but I’m creative enough to mimic the woodgrain for a genuine cedar look. Any warm shades from the brick would work well, and you can purchase faux garage door hardware and/or windows from amazon!
I’d consider painting them black.
The issue is that the house currently looks like everything is merging together, with no clear difference between the brick, windows, and door.
The red shutters and red garage are eye-catching.
Your garage door is good as it is. Make sure it complements the brick. It’s not meant to stand out.
Try a new color for your shutters.
Choose a bold color for the front door that doesn’t necessarily have to match the shutters.
Maybe we could consider a darker brown or dark wood finish for both the painting and the shutters. This would create some contrast while still complementing the brick.
I actually really love it just the way it is! So beautiful.
I believe the garage door is in good shape. Consider painting the shutters a cozy color. It would be nice to have some flowers lining your walkway.
These look super nice!

How about maroon or burgundy?
