I believe Davids is a DD. Just remember, Rome wasn't built in a day. Your starting off good with what you want to do. Just take your time and whenever you have free time, pull a piece off and paint it. Your coil packs can be painted. Just make sure the bottom and posts are taped up good. You can get some paint stripper for plastic bumpers for the cover and regular paint stripper for any metal parts. And yea, if you are going to change the wires, I'd go ahead and change plugs to.
