You won’t need to visit Los Santos Customs to unlock these new edits.

A clip posted by user jacob_w52 has gone viral on TikTok with over 340,000 likes and 3.5 million views, revealing a different way to edit vehicles.

The trick itself is very simple, and can be done with just a few clicks:

  1. Load up GTA Online.
  2. Open up Pedal and Metal on your iFruit Phone.
  3. Select a BMX bike in the menus.
  4. Hit the home button on the URL bar, and head to Legendary Motorsport.
  5. Click the Z-Type vehicle, select a color of your choosing, and then click the Clock button.
  6. Re-visit Pedal and Metal and buy your BMX.
  7. There you have it, a sprayed bike that you can’t usually get!

 

So – there you have it! That’s how you can unlock even more colors for bikes in GTA 5.

Without this trick, standard black BMXs can be purchased, so you can now stand out from the crowd the next time you ride up Mount Chiliad.

Whether or not it works for other vehicles remains to be seen, but it’s certainly worth a try!
