Visuals or the stars system:

In this game, you can actively change the way your car looks by installingvisual parts or changing other properties such as its paint or addingdecals. Depending on how cool your car looks, you are awarded stars thatwill call other people's attention and increase the amount of cash you earnwhen invited to take pictures for a magazine cover. Some shops offer options to personalize your colors; others will install
other parts such as spoilers or underglow neons. Down below there's a list of what parts each shop will offer, depending on
how many parts you have unlocked in the game: 

          }       Body Shops ( green light )        {

 In body shops you can find skirts, spoilers, roof scoops, mirrors, hoods,headlights and backlights, wide body kits and carbon fiber parts. You canfind anything in carbon fiber except for the lights, sure. Carbon fiberparts are considered "cooler" than regular parts. There are also options to convert your trunk and body kit to carbon fiber.
This will increase your stars for sure.

          }       Paint Shops ( red light )        { 

In these shops, you can change the base-color of your car and paint manyother parts, like spoilers, roof scoops and all that. Depending on the painttype and on how many parts have been painted in non-stock colors, your starswill increase accordingly. Carbon fiber parts cannot be painted, so you have to decide whether you'll install a regular part or a carbon fiber part, and which of the two willlook or feel better. In a paint shop, you can also apply vinyls and decals to your car; however,
you cannot apply these to a carbon fiber surface, like a hood, for example.

           } Car Specialties Shops ( yellow light ) {
