How to change the braces/parenthesis colors in Visual Studio

I am not talking about the highlight colors but the actual colors. I got a color scheme with light background color but the braces/parentheses are barely visible. Anyone knows how to change this?

Btw this is for C# because C++ seems to color braces/parentheses using operator color.

The Visual Studio 2014 CTP 14.0.22129 dark theme blacked-out the brackets and semi-colon for some reason. I was able to fix this by changing the foreground color of the "Punctuation" display item.
