Please don't paint them white. Please. You will have a heck of a time keeping them clean. Any color is going to look better than white.
If your dead set on white, only do one and make sure you like how it looks. If you do your drums... well.. drums usually look bad when painted most colors... can't imagine how they would look in white.
Just my opinion... take it for what it is worth.
