What about sticky?

Step one: Find a cool picture. Well whatdaya know, there are some phat pictures right here on EverythingCelica! Kulod!

Step one (After you pick a picture, just pick a freakin picture! It's not that hard!!): Use the polygonal lasso tool to select the entire car! EXCLUDING THINGS SUCH AS SIDE MARKERS AND........other things that aren't supposted to be "color-changed-ded"

Step 6: Use the "Blending properties" for the blue layer. ("Color" usually works best for this) And make it look like it was fresh out of the paint booth.

There ya have it. This process usually works well on cars that have color (anything other then black white and grey.) Now I know some of you are thinking, why the hell did he have us duplicate the car the first time around!?!?! That guys a Jerk!!!! The reason you should duplicate the car is so if you need to mess around with the lighting, you can just bring up brightness/contrast/curves/ w/e and change the lighting of the car w/o changing the lighting of the entire scene.

When it comes to black and white cars, you can use the same process, however, you WILL need to mess around with the brightness and whatnot to make the color look right. ALSO, you will need to select a different "Blending property". Such as multiply, or overlay, depending on the lighting/color and whatnot of the original picture.
If you have any questions regarding P/S or.........anything, for that matter, feel free to drop me a PM!!!
