Sunfire Cape first, defense if your team is losing lanes (be tanky for them) or if you're losing lane, offense if you're winning lane and/or your team is winning/holding lanes.

The real point of getting a Sunfire Cape though is for split pushing, so if you don't plan on doing that then you could get a different tank item first (like Spirit Visage or Randuin's) if you're going against a lot of AP or if the enemy team has high attack speed on one or two hyper carries. Even if you're winning your lane/all lanes, you should still pick up one tank item before going damage just so you don't get insta-gibbed with just your Hydra.

Generally though, you don't really need damage items on Renekton. If you're tanky enough, you can just wear the enemy team down in team fights and probably get a few kills in the process.
