   The reflective part is reflective for a reason, depends on how friendly your MOT man is really.

   foglights are not tested in an MOT.

   You can paint them as much as you want, fog lights aren't compulsory.

   yeah, if lights are fitted...
   
   fog lights are in a different class when it comes to it.
   
   wouldnt you be pissed off if you failed your MOT for a broken fog but everything else pristine, then a car without fogs passed?
