normal car paint mate. Or so i believe.
Sand them back
Primer them
Spray them
Laquer them.
Im sure Furio Al did a top guide on here somewhere :)

if u mean spraying the plastic insert then no its not illegal. as long as the reflectors are un-touched.
theres a guide in the FAQ section.

jsut use normal paint, leave the wheels to dry for a good few weeks especially in this weather as the paint will be soft and is more liable to chip
