Don't colour code the mirrors do them gloss black, looks odd all white

To answer the question though,
The side strips are held on with pop clips, so you just pop them off ( you'll probably break the clips in the process as there pretty brittle - so get some new ones ready  )
I think the front bumper mould is held on with clips that slide into the bumper, not sure if there's also a bolt of two on that one, someone will let you know..
And for the rear I have absolutly no idea 
The wing mirrors are held in with 3 torx screws behind the plastic cover on the door inslide the car

Or just white the caps? Gloss black base and housing with white caps? Maybe?

Yer that would work, but when the whole things white it looks a bit tacky, too much white!

And the actual painting the only real tips are too make sure you have more than enough primer, colour and lacquer.
Get a whole bunch of different grade sand paper, and just take everything really slowly, don't skip parts or rush in between coats prep makes perfect
