Repainting and car registration issues?

[Type 100]

Hi guys, I just wanted to ask:
Is changing the color of your car still a big hassle with the LTO in terms of registration?

I heard from some HCPers that it's no longer such a big deal. They cite the newer Certificates of Registration nowadays: these no longer have a field for body color unlike before. If you have your car repainted how would you go about it come registration/renewal time?

Thanks in advance

Execute ng affidavit of change color bro. Dapat immediately after nag change ka ng color. Why? Because baka kasi any untoward na mangyari iba ang nakareflect sa records ng LTO. Mura lang naman mga P600.00 lang.

Thanks for the quick response. So immediately after filing the affidavit, I should change the color?

Kahit sa field office ng LTO ba pwede na gawin yung affidavit?

change of color muna bago affidavit. Original LTO office ng sasakyan mo bro.

Does this apply if you have your car repainted a different shade of the same color? For example, mine was previously painted a dark maroon, almost brown. I had it repainted to a lighter shade of maroon; now it looks more red.

Subjective din sir ang pagtingin ng color. Pero you can never go wrong with changing it na lang, considering minimal lang naman ang costs involved. Suggest ko isabay mo na lang sa renewal ng registration mo para isang lakaran na lang.
