The thing with vehicle colors is that the DMV uses only a the primairy colors..White .Blue. Red.Green. ect...if you look on the ownerships you will see ..Color. and either Two door or Four door..and the number of cylinders ..If for example you changed from a light blue to a dark blue there is no reason to notify anyone but if you went for example from a Red to a Black .you have to notify the DMV.because if you get pulled over by the police and they ask to see your papers and he notices the color on your paperwork does not match the vehicle you can end up having to do some serious explaining..And if you have an older vehicle and you just spent alot of money restoring the body work and painting it..you should have an appraisal done and submitted to your insurance company that way if something happens to your vehicle you will be fully compensated for it value instead of the book value.

Neither the DMV nor your insurance company knows or cares what color your vehicle is. Change the color any way that pleases you, and you don't have to notify anyone about it.

The absolutely free reverse vin check sites generally provide fake information. To get real information, money will have to be paid. The free searches provide fake information so they can get your email address to send spam.
Stay away from shady reverse vin check sites, most likely you won't get any information after you make the payment. Not to mention you won't get a report and you won't get an answer if you try to call for a refund. Stick with a reputable reverse vin check site like http://www.reversevincheck.net that has been around since 1995.

No, because the vehicle is known by a VIN number not a color.

Basically anything that changes the description of the vehicle of record should be reported, whether its a gas coversion, paint job or modification.
Let your insurer know as well
the worst they can do is say thanks .
