You might consider backpack rain covers. There’s a large selection of colours/sizes from Amazon,  and no doubt other retailers. Not a complete solution because the red would still be there when the covers have to be removed!

A friend of mine has red Ortlieb City version of the Roller panniers, I think they look just fine.  Attached photo.

Do you have a red matching jersey to wear?

Look at the bright side.  With enough UV, the red might turn to pink, so you might eventually get rid of that red color.
