even if u follow that way still you need approval from traffic department, it will not take u even 10 minutes to get approval... it is very easy... better to go main traffice department and ask any guy sitting outside that u need to change ur car colour and he will give u form with typing take it to the counter and they will stamp meaning u got the approval after that u want to scratch or what ever u can do, bcos u have approval to change colour.

No thats legal.....its within the Insurance laws.

But they might charge you 25% of the charges (as they charge you during any damage repairs).

Get a "Kudush Aamna" ...lol...approx arabic for "general Scratch"..report from the Traffic Dept and charge it to your Insurance Co....free of cost...

I am not sure what the arabic is for "General Scratch" I think it is "Kudush Aamna"...

u can change the paint of ur car but u need approval from traffic depatment. That s not big thing just go there & get form & pay 20 riyals & get approval. Then find nice garage & ask them to paint. The paint job should not cost more then 2,500 qr. Simple
