all you need is 1 or 2 cans of white krylon fusion and a screw driver, i sanded and primed everything first, but with krylon fusion paint you really don't need too..
there is a tutorial here for taking apart the dash, i used it and it's really good

rims are 17" enkei DM5's
for your drums, I seriously wouldn't worry about them too much, since it'll wear off in just a few drives anyways, BUT I would definately shine it up nice like you would for your rims, and for the calipers, Hmm....paint it (color of choice) in a nice high-gloss finish. Use layers. 2-3 coats color, and then 3-4 coats clear gloss. It would look very smooth, especially if you are on a well-lit, wet road at night, or using neons.
for the rear drums, get a flat black rust inhibitor spray paint and a heavy steel bristle brush. I did this on my last rides drums, brush the HELL outta the drums to clean the rust and crap off and to set the surface to accept paint. The give them maybe 3 coats of the flat black rust inhibitor paint. When you put your rims on the drums more or less disappear into the shadows. for god sake whatever you do dont paint your drums red
as for the fronts do whatever you want
