Sorry I cant help with the spk's, but I love the dye idea. Might need to go pick up some black RIT and make my Krypton's all black. This type of plastic should take dye nicely.

to take off the upper cuff you would have to drill out the ankle rivets and then replace them with a screw rivet afterwards. It's very doable and if done right, will work fine, but i would not do that big of a mod on my boots just to dye them.

get some latex gloves, and soak a rag in the dye, and rub like a motha fucker on the area of boot you want to dye.
