There's no flaming allowed on this site, so no worries there. However we do have a case modding section so that will probably be a better area for your post. I can move it for you
As far as what types of paints to use, I never painted an Xbox but if you look at some of the painted Xbox's that I have sold you can see that the person who does mine does a killer job! The only problem is he takes forever to get them to you (2 week turn around). The last time I talked to him he said he uses Dulphi paint, automotive clear, and an automotive gun. He also has this really cool tank that he built that has air filtration so there is no dust/debris to get into the paint as it's drying.
One tip that I can give you is, when it comes time to paint the front of your case take apart the eject button parts, and also remove the little panel that covers the buttons. Man does that make a difference. The vendor I have been using does this and it makes for a much more professional look. I have two cases from another vendor who didnt do that and you can tell because the paint starts to splinter in the cracks if you just paint over the cracks. If you take the pieces apart and paint them separately they look like they came from the factory like that. It really makes for a much more professional look. PM me and I'll give you the website of the person I use. His name is Zack and he is in the state of Washington. He is killer. He may be able to give you additional information.
As far as the controller ports I have posted some pics on how to do that mod. They will be located in the case modding area, I am unsure if I posted anything in the normal tutorial section. The first couple times you do the mod it will take you a little while, but now I can do them in about 20 minutes or less. I suggest getting minimum 5000 mcd 3mm LEDs. Get yourself a little hobby glue gun. One of the mini ones. Also get some 1/4 watt 100 Ohm resistors.
Let me know if you cant find the tutorials. I'll look around and if I cant even find them, I'll post a new one just for you. I have some ports to do so I'll take brand new pics too.
