For those unable to find the paint mods for sale: They are being sold by station traders that spawn in stations. The dudes behind a counter where you dock up. After you buy whatever you want to apply, you must apply it through redesign menu accessed via right clicking a ship on the map. I even tested it with a new save and they do show up for sale in both new and old saves.

It's still working fine as of 6.1 beta. There are far more paint jobs now than there are in the images section, so I made a video giving a quick look at each one. It took over half an hour! https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/videos/15
Getting a whole ton of "Invalid ware 'paintmod_0348' referenced for stock id 'default_trader', skipping entry." and "[=ERROR=] 0.00 StockData: Invalid ware 'paintmod_0598' referenced for stock id 'pirate_trader', skipping entry." errors in the log in 5.0 which seems to be resulting in very long load times (5+ minutes to load a game/start a new game).
I appreciate you taking all those pictures so I can see how they look like and chose from here one, instead of buying all because while you solved the trader wares clutter by creating a separate tab, if you buy lots, the player inventory gets too cluttered. With these pictures I can pick one and buy just that one.
My suggestion for improvements to this mods is precisely that, in the same way you made a separate menu for trader wares, make one for player inventory to keep paint mods separated from general wares.

It worked for me after i left the station in a ship then landed again and the menu now worked as intended. Hope it helps. (Version 4.00)
