what's the problem? Why don't you post a screenshot of your car with the vinyl? If what you posted above is it, than you are talking nonsense, as the vinyl is exactly the same as in the screenshot.

Looks to me like you're using a pearlescent base when you really need to be using metallic or gloss. Or it's a glitch with your game...

use different base paint. experiment, it can't be that hard. PM the authour of the vinyl.

lol fast and furious junkies:D. i have the same problem smetimes as well, just try diffrent colours, try just gloss first, its a less messier paint and wont really discolourate your vinyl..hopefull

bottom line: those pics are of a vinyl that you downloaded. Hence if your color is wrong: 2 reasons come to mind - a. You graphic card sux. b. Your base color of the car is not the same one as used for screenshot (thus just try them all) - and the last option is more probable.
