Heal, and Clone stamp tools are great for hiding things like plates and sidemarkes and ugliness. Start thinking in layers, whenever I lower a car on PS I cut a line across the image to make a top and bottom, this line is in a spot where when you delete a portion (or really lower the top layer over the bottom and it hides part) it looks decent enough, Streets are great for this. Make sure when adding in new layers like a paint overlay, to blur it with guassian blur and a few pixels.

 

Here is a image I was working on for awhile til I lost my PSD file <_<

 

 

I forgot to crop the bottom off, and I should have smoothed the valence. My line for that image was the bottom of the car, the line between the driveway and the "grass", and the driveway and the street. natural lines in a picture are a great place to cut a picture, no need to color match afterwards.

Thanks for the info Laecaon. I usually crop out the car with easy edge cut, then I'm left with a yellow background so i easy edge cut the the top of the picture and bring it down to the lowered car. I havent really tried to make a car look lowered and drivable, I just think the more slammed the better. but i really want to make a really decent pic here in the future. Was hoping another contest would start up and I'd spend my time on those pics for sure.
