Photoshop Help Please Early Long Hood

I just picked up a set of ATS Classic wheels and have been toying with the idea of having them painted in gold, or at least the centers in gold and the rims natural. I have found a picture of my color of car (Tangerine) with ATS Classics and would like someone to help me out by turning the centers to gold and the decklid and hood to white. Any help would be greatly appreciated versus me painting the wheels and then barfing all over them if it looks ridiculous...

Thanks!
Sam

I don't usually respond to photoshop help needed posts, but the car pictured inspired my entry into 'Porschedom' This car gets me every time.

Of the two options you described, my pick (not that you asked for it) is the all gold wheel.

Jeeez, how do you improve on that fantastic car? The silver wheels tie to the window trim, bumper trim, door handles, etc. IMHO...She's perfect. Leave her be.

I agree. In person the car is a stunner. I am a fan of the heritage of gold wheels, but the natural finish on the classics is just so original.

I agree that Bob's car is a stunner, but I want to be different from his car, so thought some different colors might do the trick (my car is going the direction of a rally special)...

I really dig the gold/bronze wheel look. Dare to be different!
