Do not spray paint your wheels. You will go crazy trying to fix all the chips. Instead, have them powder coated. The coating is much stronger and will resist chipping. I have powder coated many mountain bikes with great results.

Sweet dude. Looks clean and we all now how quick those things are.
Get those fugly orange side markers unwired and painted!
Liking the sound of your other mods, it's going to look evil. Maybe a light smoking of the front head lamp cluster would go well with it when it's all blacked out.
By the way, you can't be driving it hard if you've got a Starbucks sitting there. I'd scald myself in seconds if I ever put anything hot in the drinks holder. Sort it out bra!

You sure you want to go with 20's man? Those things are heavy, and more for show than go. Swap out the stockers for for some light alloy multi-piece 18's...the performance gains will be worth it.
