To apply for a color change procedure, the required materials are not many and mainly include: the application form for motor vehicle alteration registration and filing; the original and photocopy of the identity proof of the motor vehicle owner; the original Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate; the original Motor Vehicle Driving License; and the clearance of all fines before the vehicle color change. Here are the relevant details: 1. Notes: Similar to the normal annual inspection, vehicle information and violation records will be verified, so it is important not to forget to clear any violations in advance. If a friend is handling the procedure on your behalf, their ID card must also be brought along. Since the driving license needs to be updated, photos and an appearance inspection will be conducted before processing the application, which is the same as the appearance inspection during the vehicle inspection. Therefore, keeping the vehicle body clean is crucial. 2. Additional information: According to relevant regulations, if the vehicle body color is changed without applying for alteration registration within the specified time limit, penalties ranging from 150 to 500 yuan may be imposed based on traffic laws and regulations, and the illegal vehicle may even be temporarily seized, with an order to restore it to its original condition. The patterns and colors after body modification must not be identical or similar to the statutory markings of police cars, ambulances, fire engines, or engineering rescue vehicles.

Just changed my car wrap to glacier blue, and the registration process was actually quite simple. First, get the wrap done at a certified shop and keep the invoice and work order. Bring your ID card, vehicle license, and original registration certificate straight to the DMV. Remember to remove all aftermarket body modifications beforehand and ensure the VIN is visible. When queuing for photos at the inspection site, be extra careful not to use dark privacy tints—I was once asked to remove the side window tint on the spot. The fee is just ten yuan, and I got my new vehicle license in half an hour. A tip: It's best to go on a weekday morning to avoid the lunch break when there are fewer staff. You must register within ten working days after applying the wrap, or you'll be stopped by traffic police. Also, never change the color of the car logo—it will definitely fail inspection.

Last week, I accompanied my buddy to handle the color change registration and almost ran into trouble. First, we went to the modification shop to get the construction certificate and invoice, and printed two color photos in advance. The DMV checks the body color code, so it's recommended to choose a standard color scheme to avoid hassles. The process involves queuing for vehicle inspection → submitting materials at the window → waiting for the new certificate. Special note: no decals or stickers are allowed—don’t ask how I know. Even the spare tire cover with modification patterns must be removed, though wheel styles can be changed. The whole process took 40 minutes. Key materials not to forget: the owner’s original ID card (must be present in person) and the green vehicle title (absolutely don’t forget). The staff also reminded us to provide the color change record when selling the car later, otherwise it could affect the transfer process.

Why can't the car key open the door?

The reasons why the car key cannot open the door are: 1. The remote key is out of battery; 2. The car battery is out of power, or there is strong signal interference around; 3. You can use the hidden mechanical key inside the remote key to open the door. If the mechanical key also cannot open the door, it is a door lock malfunction. If the car battery is out of power, the car's sensing system will naturally fail, resulting in malfunction. In this case, the car needs to be recharged. A common issue is the car key battery running out of power, leading to malfunction. Generally, the battery life of a car sensing key is about 2 years. If the battery is dead, the door cannot be opened via sensing. For cars with a one-button start, if the key battery is dead, you can only use the spare key inside the sensing key to open the door.
