Not sure what you're talking about with the rims, but this is what I was able to do with the color. The photo of the blue truck appears to be taken with a cell phone, not the greatest quality. The yellow turned out looking like a 16 yr old did it with a brush and a bucket of yellow Rust-O-Leum, LOL. (Reminds me of this Camaro my friend had back in the day)
I cut out the body as a new layer, then went back and cut out and deleted the mirror from the copied layer. I de-saturated the first copy layer so it was gray, then copied it again, locked transparent pixels, brushed it with "RGB yellow" (FFFF00). Then I changed the yellow layer's color mode to "overlay".
As a finishing touch I went around the background (original) layer with the sponge tool to de-saturate the blue "glow" caused by low res camera cuz even though I did the best I could with the cutout, there was still some blue showing.
If someone wants to do the 37" wheels, feel free to copy my version to save time doing the yellow. I'm not going to whine about "copyrights" or anything like that.
