another option...
u can paint it whenever and wateva u wan...no need to inform insurans n jpj...
just if u're involve in an accident, no insurans claims for u even u're first party :D..
and if your car paint is not same wit the car card stated color, even u're first/third party insurans, if ppl hit u from behind which supposed to be the one who hit u from the back wrong, u also can't claim any insurans but have to PIY (Pay It Yourselves)

different color stil can claim, just gotta write an explanation letter.

for safety, u just hv to go jpj n informs them tat u change color, bring u registration card...they need to update it. if jpj oledi updated, insurance is optional
