I have heard that some people use large pieces of fabric to block reflections when shooting dark colored cars - especially black - in order to have smooth lines on the side of a car.

What color will be best for this? I'm thinking black, but I may be wrong.

We did that in the studio & sometimes on location, too. This was before the days of Photo$hop.
Color depends on if you're trying to hide reflections or put them in the side, doesn't it? Until you figure it out,... MOVE YOUR FEET! (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=536323)
