I'm looking at red and blue G10 grips for a Tisas gray A1. Kinda leaning towards the red. Whadaya think?
Which color grips for a gray 1911?

If that's the two choices, it's your personal preference. Against the flat gray finish, either would really stand out. I want just a bit of contrast without being so harsh that I end up with a drawer of 1911 grips next to my drawer of holsters. 
I put Cool Hand gray/black G10 on most of my 1911 pistols with the exception of my satin black Cerakote Garrison. For it I chose a VZ black cherry G10 which resembles dark wood. On an all stainless Kimber, I chose Stoner CNC black starburst.

The middle grip panel is exactly what I bought from VZ grips. Give their website a look. They have some great color combinations and styles. If you're like me you'll have a hard time making a decision.

These aren't what you're looking for but. I do like these. They have them in other colors as well

There are several patterns I like, but in either case, I like the more subdued colors. Dark red/black or darker blue/black.

I saw some of those and people dunk it in coffee to change the color I not quite that bold I really like it to get old looking naturally

Depends on the grip, I guess, and the color.
I’d probably go for a dark-cherry red over a bright red, myself…

By the bye, though…
With gray, I’d go dark/olive green.
