How can they paint the wheels with them still on the car?

this seems like a poor job. Wheels should be refurbished off the car and with no tyres on - or a least the tyres removed back from the rim... Who are these guys? Your number plate is the least of your worries

Yikes!

There is no way I'd have my wheels refurbed that way. Can't be a full refurb surely?

Maybe leaving them on would prevent you kerbing your alloys. :)
That's the biggest fairy cake holders I have seen.

The refurb was light scuffs, not heavy curb damage. Very good results, ill post pics once it stops raining.

How did they manage to mask in the brake calipers & discs with the wheels on??? or are they also now the same colour as the wheels?

Hold up, just zoomed in on the pic....

They have masked up the callipers etc, so they must have either really struggled with them, esp doing it whilst the wheels are on, also if you look closely you can see how they masked the wheels up, this must have taken a while with the wheels on too, surley it would have been quicker and far easier to take the wheels off.. unless of course they had a hobbit working for them LOL
