[CharlieAnn]

The required procedures for applying to change the body color of a motor vehicle include: the "Motor Vehicle Modification Registration Application Form", original and photocopies of the identity proofs of the vehicle owner and agent, the original vehicle registration certificate, and the original vehicle license. Additionally, any outstanding fines must be paid before changing the vehicle color. According to Article 6, Chapter 2 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law", if the color change area of a motor vehicle does not exceed 30%, there is no need to undergo modification registration. Conversely, if it exceeds 30%, it must be filed and registered within 10 days after the color change. Precautions for vehicle wrap color change: Before changing the color of a vehicle wrap, it is necessary to consult the vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered to confirm whether the region permits changing vehicle color using wraps. If the region does not support this method, the modification cannot be registered after the color change, and the wrap must be completely removed to restore the vehicle's original color. Additionally, according to Article 10 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", owners are no longer required to apply in advance to the vehicle management office. They can first change the vehicle color, install body kits, replace the engine, etc., and then apply for modification registration with the vehicle management office. According to Article 10, registered motor vehicles must apply for modification registration under the following circumstances: Change of body color. Replacement of the engine. Replacement of the body or frame. Whole vehicle replacement due to quality issues. Change of use nature, such as converting a commercial vehicle to non-commercial or vice versa. The vehicle owner's residence moves out of or into the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office. Furthermore, according to Article 15 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and engineering rescue vehicles must spray emblem patterns and install sirens and signal lights as required. Other motor vehicles are prohibited from spraying, installing, or using emblem patterns, sirens, or signal lights that are specific to or resemble those of the aforementioned vehicles.
