I wouldn't have thought there is anything you can safely put on them. It says on the packet the list of what not to let them come into contact with, so I suppose you could if you can find a paint which doesn't contain anything frm that list

I wouldn't paint them as they flex and the paint would just crack and even if it was a rubber based paint it would rub off.

Dyeing normally involves boiling water which could re shape the bush and ruin it or it could harden it up and have other downsides.

Personal i would leave them as they are but someone may have a smart anwser.
