Dug this picture out of my archive and wanted to try some Topaz Plugins on it . Changed the BG with "ReMask" , did a little "Detail" work then used a plugin called "Clean" . I thought it turned out rather nice . These were plugins attached to Cs5 . Comments welcome .

That metallic paint looks great in the sunlight. I'd like to see some gradient in a darker background, though. Here are three shots I used in one page of the book for reference: http://img.photobucket​.com …48_Chevy_web.jp​g~original (external link)

I like your images also and see what your talking about . I'll give that a try next go around . Perhaps some strong vignette would work here also .

I would also try to blend out the shadow that is being cast on the asphalt, that way it would look a little bit more natural instead of a hard edge.

I can see some folding chair legs and pavement through the windshield too.

As it is, we should see a darker version of the background through the corner of the windshield now. Be subtle. ; )
