The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure — How to Get All Car Cosmetics

In the early hours of The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure, players gain access to an orbal car for convenient fast travel without the need for the bus. And the vehicle can be decorated with several decals, most of which are obtained by examining specific spots throughout Crossbell. Further, getting these cosmetics contributes towards an achievement/trophy, so for completionists, they’re especially worth gunning for.

While most of these cosmetics aren’t missable, one, in particular, can be easily missed out on if a player isn’t paying attention. Moreover, the car can also be installed with parts, but those can all simply be bought from Genten on Crossbell Central Square.

We have listed every orbal car cosmetic’s location below. There shouldn’t be any spoilers throughout this article.

On the second day of Chapter 1, examine the “Monthly Car Mania: Volume 1” book in the Hayworth Residence at the Residential District for the Sky Paintwork orbal car cosmetic. You must have examined the orbal car itself once to be able to obtain this item.
