Switching your paint is easy and requires very little time, so you can do this while modding other things. I will need help compiling a list of paint codes, but for now I have the Golden Chrome! No more paint chips!

First off, when you open the gt-5 file, hit CTRL+G, and type in :

    0000E840


Now you should see something looking like 00 FF FF FF

The selected code in the above image is the paint data. This is the only thing that needs changing in order to repaint your car.

Here are some paint codes :

    
Gold Chrome : 01 11 FF FF
Reflex Purple : 00 92 1F FF
Nero Nemesis : 01 9E 3F FF
DefaultColour : 00 00 00 00
Matte Dark Grey : 01 0F A3 55
Frankfurt Gray Pearl : 00 09 1F FF
Burning Red : 00 0E 3F FF
Yellow : 00 5F DF FF
Can-Am White : 00 99 3F FF
Light French Blue : 00 54 3F FF
Dolphin grey : 00 9F DF FF
Aurora Flare Blue Pearl (2P) : 01 9F DF FF
Default Color : 03 FF FF FF (Note, this is the first color the car came in, NOT just very dark black)
Electric Orange : 00 63 7F FF
Ultimate Black : 00 7D 5F FF
Matte white : 05 0F 5F FF
Matte black 05 0F 3F FF

Got the chrome code after repainting a Veyron. I imported it to a GT-R'07 and a Ford GT-40 '06, both have worked.

Of course, after editing, update and recompile the document, replace the save, load up GT5 and go into GT Auto. If the car has indeed changed color, buy an oil change (burn a mile in a new car online quickly before re painting) then go into your garage, highlight the thumbnail of your car, press Triangle, select "Create a Thumbnail" and either :
- Favorite it, and go into the Favorite menu to see it fixed
- Go into a different menu (Simply switching from Premium/Standard or Standard/Premium) and go back.

You now have a Gold Car! With a fixed thumbnail!

Credits :

- Vectriixx, for his amazing tutorials, without which I would ever have done this.
- Bounkass, for being there when I found the code Winky Winky
- dr1ft3r, for helping me fix the thumbnail.
- ANYBODY who has either PM'd me a color, or posted a color.

Regards, Tidus.

Yes, I have all DLC paint chips. I have tomorrow off, so I'll compile a complete list of all DLC chrome tomorrow. For the rest of the night, time to go racing! (With regular cars of course, just painted! - My buddies don't appreciate it when I bring a performance modified car to the race... understandably.)

Please don't share them! I have promised not to. Please, I think some things must be sacred. But I want them for private use :p

i repainted mine Can-Am white and while it shows up above the car in the garage and online the color next to the car is white...the car itself turned to a very dark grey almost black...i don't think it can be repainted.

That could be a bug, cause it sounds like you did DefaultColor :/

no it's not the same grey that you can buy the car in, it's darker than that, looks black in the garage but in bright light (tsukuba) it's slightly grey

DefaultColor is Super Black. Matt Black if you prefer. Default Color with a space is indeed the first color the car came in ^^"!

Its sad to see that there are people like that Gasphgodwhy:. Not even going to offer thanks in the first or latter post but instead explaining self the reason to be arrogant... You wonder what sort of inspiration goes to those who publicise leaks and notices this...
