Customization is the special sauce that makes Forza Horizon 4 so tasty. In Forza Horizon 4, players can paint and customize the way the cars look to almost any look they wish. Players can also make their cars go faster and handle better with the variety of mods available within the game.

The customization possibilities in Forza Horizon 4 are arguably the most sought-after aspect of the game.

There are a variety of ways players can apply liveries in Forza Horizon 4, let’s take a quick look at them today.

Design Editor

Almost every custom design available in Forza Horizon 4 was most likely born out from the Design Editor.

Through the Design Editor, players can apply custom shapes, lines, contours, and patterns to truly make their liveries stand out from the crowd. They can even download pre-made designs from contributors within the community.

Some of these designs emulate some of the most popular looks in popular media. Cars such as the Nissan Silvia S15 can be made to look exactly like Han’s Mona Lisa in Tokyo Drift.

If you happen to have a type of look in mind that you would like to apply to your car in Forza Horizon 4, there is surely a way to achieve that through the Design Editor.

Creative Hub

Community Designs

The quickest way to get a popular design you have been craving for is through the Community Designs section.

Here, the most popular designs for a particular car will be featured. For the Nissan Skyline R34 GTR, for example, we can select designs such as Brian’s R34 Skyline from the Fast and Furious franchise. The very popular Mine’s Skyline R34 design is also featured here.

Although not quite as vast a collection as players might hope, the designs featured here most of the time are very tastefully done and does justice to the legendary designs contributors were aiming to emulate.
