Summarize your bug Vinyls on the car seem to turn black when I'm not in the garage. Usually it happens with most (if not all) the vinyls on the passenger side (the right) and sometimes I see it happen to the vinyls on the front bumper on the car. I see the bug on all my cars. Sometimes I can reset the bug by selecting the car I want to drive in the garage, usually the black vinyls are already appearing on the car select screen, and then when I go to the "Style" menu the vinyls reset and they look normal. Sometimes when I go outside again however, the affected vinyls turn black again
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? All I had to do was put vinyls on the passenger side of the car and then go outside. In one instance all I had to do was leave multiplayer mode and look at the car from the main menu
What happens when the bug occurs? vinyls turn black when I leave the garage
What do you expect to see? vinyls that are black
Has anyone else experienced this problem while playing the game? I haven't found any solutions online. Here's one example of what I'm talking about, The bug follows me outside the garage and it happens to all the cars. Left side is what I see, the right side is what it's supposed to look like

- 3 years ago@EA_Barry I'm having almost the exact same issue, also on PC, and these steps did nothing to fix it (as an additional step, I also updated the video card's drivers, to no effect).To be more specific, the area where decals become black depends on the specific car. It's almost universally on the passenger side, but in some cars it's the entire passenger side (Honda NSX), sometimes only on the passenger door (Skyline R32 with the EA Play body kit), in others it's a specific shape in the passenger side or "below a certain line" (BMW M3 GTR, Silvia S15, LanEvo9), in others it's just a small spot on the rear of the passenger-side side-skirt (Mitsu Eclipse). And in one particularly odd case case (new Acura NSX), the side decals will be okay but the rear bumper gets the black decals.This issue is not consistent; it's very frequent, but sometimes the cars will have their decals visible, but more often than not, they will have the glitched black decals.
