Hey Dwain - we had this topic a while ago and decided it couldn't be done via the normal methods (Dylon, boiling, etc). However someone suggested a rubber dye...must admit never tried it, but here's the thread:

I have tried a few techniques to turn different colour ODI grips to Black... including using Black Iron Oxide... no joy. The colourway has to be introduced into the rubber compound before the grips are injection moulded.
