Nice touch with the prancing horse Smile With Photoshop I've found the best way to play around with colours is to select the area you want, try to get the colouring like it would be in real life (ie. all the same), blur it a smidge and then adjust the hue/saturation to get it looking real.

Looks good though mate, coming along nicely Smile

Yeh no shit...its a pain in the ass to get to and i hate it.
After all the sanding and work i have put in trying to get it back up to scractch. i hope it looks ok.
i hate the fact that every time u want to do work on the engine, sometimes u cant help scratching or chipping the paintwork in the engine bay...it sux bigtime.
Not something that just a random person looking at your car would recognise... but you in yourself knows its there and all you think when u look at it is "SHIT..why The F**K did i let myself do that.
its so annyoing.
Anyways.
Party on
Steve
