Photoshop Question....
Use the lasso tool.
Once you have the whole car selected copy and paste in the same spot.
Cut out the windows, lights, tires...etc. Make the layer only the actual bodywork of the car and now just change the color.
Same with the wheels.
Well i hoped this helped.

highlight everything that you want to change to a new color. Make a new layer and fill that selection with a color of your choice. Then I usually set the layer opacity to 50% and go into layer options and try diff blend modes while changing the opacity. If it gets pretty close but not quite you can make a new layer of a diff color to add either a little darker or a little lighter. Kinda hard to explain on here.....

Easier way to do it...
select the parts you want to change with the Lasso tool.
This is VERY difficult to do perfectly... (since it can't be done perfectly, go a touch wider around the car, getting some of the things you don't want)
Once you've done this, you can go to Image/Adjust and use the color replacement, or selective color, or brightness contrast, or Hue Saturation, or whatever the hell works best for you.
Once all that is completed... deselect the car, and use the History brush to trim the edges.
This works best for me.
If you don't have a History Brush, you need a newer version of Photoshop. My all time favorite was 5.5, but now I have 7.0

or you could just duplicate the layer before changing the color, that way you have the original under it and therefor would not have to use the history tool.
