Forza Horizon 6 takes car customization to a much deeper level than previous entries in the series. Painting, livery creation, and aero customization are no longer just cosmetic add-ons—they’re now a full creative system built around precision, layering, and detailed control over nearly every visible part of a vehicle.
This guide breaks down how the system works, how to access it, and how to get the most out of the new customization tools from a player’s perspective.
Accessing the Customization Garage
Before you can start painting or modifying anything, you’ll need to enter a proper customization hub.
To access it:
Drive to any unlocked Player Home or Horizon Festival site
Open the hub menu from the location prompt
Go to the Cars tab
Select either Designs & Paints for visuals or Upgrades & Tuning for performance parts
This split design makes it easier to separate visual creativity from performance tuning, so you don’t accidentally change handling while working on a livery.
Advanced Car Painting System
The biggest upgrade in Forza Horizon 6 is the new layered painting system. Instead of applying a single color across large sections, players now get precise control over individual components.
Multi-Part Painting Control
The painting interface now allows you to modify specific areas independently:
Body paint
Hood
Mirrors
Rear wing
Sub-components like tow hooks, aero struts, and wing end plates
This is especially useful for players building themed liveries, because every small detail can now match the overall design instead of being forced into a single color block.
Paint Finishes and Fine Adjustment Tools
Paint is no longer just about choosing a color. Each surface can now use advanced finishes, including:
Gloss
Semi-gloss
Matte
Metallic
Candy
Carbon fiber-style finishes
Once a finish is selected, players can fine-tune it using sliders for:
Hue
Saturation
Brightness
This level of control allows for extremely precise color matching, which is important for recreating real-world liveries or building clean, minimal designs.
Players can also save favorite colors into a personal palette, which speeds up future builds when working across multiple cars.
Decals, Lighting, and Visual Enhancements
Beyond paint, the customization system also expands into decals and lighting effects.
Campaign and Progression Decals
Window decals and glass stickers are now fully integrated into progression rewards. As you progress through the game, more branding and sticker options become available, giving long-term goals for livery creators.
Lighting Material Improvements
Headlights and taillights now respond more realistically to lighting conditions. Depending on the environment, they can reflect ambient colors and produce subtle iridescent effects, making night builds and photo mode shots more dynamic.
Community Liveries
If you don’t want to design everything manually, you can browse community-created liveries. These can be downloaded instantly using share codes, making it easy to apply high-quality designs created by other players.
Redesigned Aero and Wheel Customization
A major improvement in Forza Horizon 6 is the overhaul of aerodynamic parts and wheel options.
Car-Specific Aero Kits
Instead of universal parts, aero components now adapt to each vehicle’s body shape. This includes:
Front splitters that follow the car’s natural contours
Custom canards designed per model
Rear aero pieces that integrate more cleanly with the body
This makes aftermarket modifications feel more realistic and factory-engineered rather than generic add-ons.
New Wing Designs
A standout addition is the introduction of gooseneck rear wings. These are commonly seen on modern track cars and provide more variety for performance-style builds.
Wheels and Tire Updates
The customization catalog also expands with:
Over 100 new aftermarket wheel designs
Improved tire sidewall visuals
Dynamic tire wear effects that affect appearance during driving
These changes make wheels and tires feel more like an active part of car identity rather than just performance stats.
Tips for Better Custom Builds
To get the most out of the system:
Start with a base color theme before adding decals
Use sub-component painting to highlight small accents like tow hooks or wing mounts
Save color palettes early to avoid redoing work later
Test designs in different lighting conditions to see how finishes react
Even small adjustments can significantly change how a car looks on the road or in photo mode.
Customization in Forza Horizon 6 is no longer just a cosmetic feature—it’s a full creative system. With deeper paint control, expanded aero options, and improved visual effects, players have far more freedom to build cars that feel truly personal.
Whether you prefer clean factory-style builds or complex racing liveries, the new system gives enough depth to support both casual creativity and serious design work.
