The 172 I'm currently renting to earn my private pilot license is solid white.

Hmmm for some reason paintshop can't open the texture files...  :(
The paintkit on the simviation site is almost what you're looking for though (fuel caps are red)

I don't have any pictures of the plane.  The only text is the tail number which shows up when you type it in on FS.  If you want to put the tail number in it's in bold black letters/numbers N733CX.  As for the kit on FS I've uploaded it already, but can't seem to make it work.  I tried deleting one of the texture files from the C172 folder and replacing it with the solid white kit, but it doesn't work.  If that worked I would have used it, but it didn't.  The fuel caps are no major deal to me, but the interior would still be gray instead of the red color I would like to have.

I think there's something wrong with the "kit textures". You should google for another one.

Well I got it working, but it worked to good.  Everything's white tires, opilots, prop, etc...  Oh well, I'll try googling it and see what i come up with.
