*Click to enlarge pictures if needed!!

What you need to do before anything, is use the Polygonal Lasso Selection Tool, and select the fenders carefully, like this:

*Make sure lines don't look straight, but curved for better results.

Then, you press CTRL + C then CTRL + V to create it as a layer.

Add you rim as a layer, under the fender layer, so you don't have to use the eraser tool to make it look all bumpy while trying to make it look flush/hellaflush under the fender. Then do your adjustments to fit the car, fix the brightness and contrast/vibrance for the rims so it matches the picture. Then flatten the image and do your editing after.

2 Layers:

Flatting into 1 image:

Same procedure applies to the front. :)

*Hey Blitz, do you mind if you can add that post to the OP? I think it might be helpful to must new PS users.


Oh yea you still up for that Photoshoot. It was to I was PMing the other day? I erased ALL my messages for space and I have a bad memory.
 
Why flatten it? It doesnt make a difference to the save file.

Flattening makes it one image. After you do all of your additions, you flatten it and you do any other edits you like, because if you don't, you'll have to edit each layer which takes a lot more time.

Either way, saving the file flattens it, but there's no need to do so if you're not done the editing.
 
PM sent. Approx. 800 words in total - have fun reading it. :D 👍

If someone needs help or simply wants to have a nice guide (photography) just ask and I'll forward you the PM I've sent to gt5fanatec.

Love your Z, Ziggy. :cheers:

Apply image is a better solution, it leaves your separate layers below so you can go back and edit it with no hassle.
