Here it is... as you wanted body kit and gunmetal rims.
It looks pretty good, that's what you should be aiming for in terms of exterior lol.

I'll drop the car and try putting carbon fiber hood on it.

I'll do a quick step by step (how I do it) later when I come back from work.

hehe

that would be awesome the "gunmetal" crayon wasn't playing nice

Okay, what I do is............
1. Get a picture of a car I'd like to photoshop
2. Try to find on the web a car at the same or very similar angle (the car in the picture has to be equal or bigger in size)
3. Cut the parts from a pimped out car and overlap them on the original car.
4. Use the erase to trim for a perfect fit.

Sometimes you might have to decrease the pimped out car's picture in order to fit the original. I never increase the size cause that just messes up the quality of a picture that's why I said equal or greater size.

I'm not sure how to color parts yet.... that'd be awesome. I'll look into it someday, just don't have interest or time.

Oh, and here's your new car.... damn... I wish I had a car like this:

-carbon fiber hood
-lowered
-bodykit

So, you can erase only 1 layer at a time... i'm going to play with that tonight... btw that car is P-I-M-P.

lol... wouldn't that be nice?

Yes, you can only erase one layer at a time. It isn't all that bad, because there's only like 5 layers.... front/back bumpers, sideskirt, 2 wheels.

Yea, that'd be awesome.. i just don't think photoshop understands mettalics and shadowing without going into major major detail.

you just have to play around with the colours you want. that and choose different layer settings, opacity or fill percentages. it should be enough for you to layer it ontop of the original colour with the original picture showing through the colour with all the reflections etc. it probably, in some cases, wont be the exact colours you're looking for cuz the base colour you're going over plays a part on how the actual colour you want shows. you'll get somewhat of an idea though
