Still i’m searching any way how to stream vehicles.meta for default vehicle models.
It works if i paste vehicles.meta (client-side) into: FiveM.app\citizen\common\data\levels\gta5
Client side evidence: Livery test - (overwrite vehicles.meta), client-side - Album on Imgur
From server-side i have no idea but today i founded interesting information at FiveM Documentation website
avaliable here: Resource manifest - Cfx.re Docs
Exactly this:
After this i got error during join into server.

For what purpose i want to edit vehicles.meta for default vehicle from game? As i wrote before ‘add-on’ vehicles can’t be spawn on traffic so i replaced vanilla models.
@ScreenT I want to edit some values for vanilla vehicles (not add-on). After a lot of tries it seems we can’t stream vehicles.meta for vanilla car models. It works for add-on vehicles only.
@ScreenT So why i want to edit vanilla vehicles? It will be easier to add new vehicle as add-on version without collision code with existing vehicles in game.
@ScreenT Answer is simple. I want to add these vehicles into traffic but add-on vehicles don’t spawn on traffic, just vanilla vehicles can be. I replaced over 300 vehicles in my server because add-on version can’t spawn on traffic.
So i added this vehicle.meta into server-side. Code from vehicle.meta at below:

At above code i added between line new flag called: “FLAG_HAS_LIVERY” because i added new liveries and would be nice if my traffic will respawn with new liveries.
Probably the reference “replace_level_meta” refers to something else. I don’t know it’s my experimental way how to overwrite vanilla code in vehicles.meta
Server side evidences:
and
and
Summary it seems the reference “replace_level_meta” doesn’t work or i did something wrong. Anyway overwriting vehicles.meta for existing default vehicles from game streamed from server side doesn’t work.
It was my experimental modding please be nice 
Thanks you for read.
