How should i paint my truck - do i need to tell the dmv?

Question

today i just made my last payment on my 2000 ford ranger (little pickup truck) anyone have any good ideas on how i should paint it? I dont wanna spend more than 30 bucks on spray paint, and right now im thinking of painting it like a cow... any ideas anyone?

also, if i paint it, do i need to report it to the dmv?

Answer 1

If you want to paint it like a cow that's your choice. You don't have to tell DMV about a color change .

Answer 2

You don't need to tell the DMV (but you might want to so their registration information is up to date), and you should get it professionally done. -- to the best of my knowledge. It doesn't hurt to tell them.

Spray paint or house paint will peel and may increase corrosion.

Answer 3

huh no its your car you do what you want to it...

Answer 4

um.. a cow? really?

i would rather have zebra stripes

Answer 5

For some reason i'm thinking that if you change the color of a vehicle ,you are surpose to contack the dmv of the color change.
