Owner permission shouldn't be needed if the car is stolen by a car thief and is to be sold to other players. It makes sense that a car thief would attempt to change the visual aspects (for example the paintjob) of a vehicle if he is to sell it to others and wouldn't want to be caught. Given that the car thief has a chop chop etc and sticks to the rules, then this should be allowed.
However the changes shouldn't be changed with /customize, as it shouldn't be permanent/saved.

Explain why the suggestion should be implemented: It makes sense I hope.

This would be good but say a new player is mechanic. I could easily go 'Change MY car' then in LOOC 'right click with wrench etc' They wouldn't be too sure. Maybe add a spray can item that changes the colour/hood/bumpers randomly(which do not save)?

The whole "context menu" vs "/customize" is really unclear for new players, I agree and think it needs to be clearified. But adding a third option to change a car would probably just increase the unclarity in my opinion.

I understand what you are saying but make this 'item' I think would work have say 2/3 REPs needed. Then you have a way to not involve a mechanic etc

I just hope said item wouldn't make the mechanic job a bit worthless, I mean there is already a way to fix your car without a mechanic, if you can change the color of a car also then there wouldn't be much left for a mechanic to do.
