You need to create a file named P_SKIN to modify an existing character's properties.

Once you created the file, put name = metalsonic always on the first line.

Then, on other line, put prefcolor = XYZ for normal color, or supercolor = XYZ for Super color. Replace XYZ with your color's name.
If your Superform color's name is "Super Custom #" (where # gets replaced by 1-5), you should put supercolor = Custom!

Here ya' got a little example with Sonic:

name = sonic
prefcolor = Sapphire
supercolor = Sky

(Sapphire and Super Sky are colors from the base game)

Did you maded all the 5 frames for the color?
All Super colors should have 5 "frames", from 1 to 5. The first frame usually is the brightest one.

This is how each frame of Sonic's Super Gold look:
__1____2____3____4____5__

And they are named...:
SKINCOLOR_SUPERGOLD1 - Super Gold 1
SKINCOLOR_SUPERGOLD2 - Super Gold 2
SKINCOLOR_SUPERGOLD3 - Super Gold 3
SKINCOLOR_SUPERGOLD4 - Super Gold 4
SKINCOLOR_SUPERGOLD5 - Super Gold 5

---

If you already did that "frames" thing, maybe you just wrote the color incorrectly?

Let's say I created SKINCOLOR_SUPERCHAOS# (where # gets replaced by the frame's numbers) and it's called in-game like Super Chaos #. If I want to apply this new Super color to Knuckles (for example), I'll have to write this:

name = knuckles
supercolor = Chaos
