I found some outdoor light fittings I'd like to buy but they only come in one shade of near black.

How difficult would it be to repaint to a colour of my choice ?

They are die cast aluminum.

I saw some CROP spray paints online, never heard of them but they also do a epoxy primer and a clear coat if that's what I needed

Probably powder coated.
I would clean and spray paint paint. No different to painting car wheels.

Thanks - unfortunately I have no idea about car wheels.
Are you saying a coat of suitable spray paint would be fine assuming surface is clean. No need for any etching priming ?
 
Well some 320 grade wet and dry (wet) will do the trick. Can only benefit the adhesion.
Warm rattle can up in hot water and spray
WRX do a good spray range.

Kolourbond is another with 5000 colours
