If this was a commercial shoot, then it can stay here, but normally it would go in Transportation.

It's an OK shot as far as showing off the paint, but I kind of wish that you had brought out the chrome a little more. Here's one way to do it:

Ty was not sure where to put it,
I see a gif but is it supposed to say "how" the chrome was brought out? What is a good technique?

You didn't see the white card bouncing into the exhaust pipe?

It's easier to do in a studio with a white flat behind you: http://s3files.core77.​com …2012/02/0carpho​togr09.jpg (external link)

You're welcome. FWIW, we used a similar translucent flat to put highlights in the top of the side of a car, but we'd run black cloth along the lower half of the flat to darken the lower side of the car.
