What procedures are required for a car body color change?

[SanCali]

To change the color of a car body, the vehicle owner or their agent must submit relevant documents to the local vehicle management office within ten days after the color change to apply for modification registration and have the vehicle inspected. The required documents include: the vehicle owner's identity proof, the original vehicle registration certificate, and the original vehicle license. It is important to note that the new color must not resemble that of special-purpose vehicles, such as ambulances, police cars, or engineering rescue vehicles. Since the color change registration process involves modifying the original vehicle registration records and replacing the original vehicle license, it is equivalent to registering a new vehicle. Therefore, any outstanding traffic fines associated with the old vehicle must be settled before applying for the color change procedure; these fines cannot be carried over to the new registration.
