Blending The Body Kit To The Cars Paint

i can never get my body kits right. i can fit them fine, i just cant get them to be the same color as the car.
lets say i have a white car. and i put on a red body kit on it. how do i match the red body kit to the white paint. if u take a look at some of the pics on my site(http://www.cardomain.com/id/photoshoped). the body kits never look right. they never match the color of the car.
also is there any way to paint a car other that going to <image/adjust/color balance> i tried to airbrush but it hides the lines of the doors and hood and no reflections
well hope someone can answer these questions
the tutorials i seen dont tell you how to do this, someone post one!
thanks
AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURE, THE KIT DONT MATCH.

have u tried to desaturate the bodykit and the car body......and then merge the layers........and then tried coloring it?

Also looks like the bodykit your trying with that picture above is really pixelated and all that stuff, blending that might not work out that well... ;)

Desaturate the entire car including the kit you put on, then play around with the Hue/Saturation.
Or, do the colouring of the car first, then try and match the brightness/contrast/hue/saturation etc or the kit with the car.
Thats the best i can think of... ;)

desaturate the car and the bodykit and us brightness/contrast to match them up to the same colour and then color them both ;)
