Welcome to PSC, be nice, mmm well ok. It is a good start, the tutorials are another good place to start, also try reading comments on the other chops and pic up tips from there. You have come to the right place to learn.

*your wheels dont match up with your tyres,
*your selections around the edges are a bit rough,
*you have no brakes behind those huge rimmz,
*Your colours are a bit flat

Hope that helps.

Welcome bro.
Gimp covered the items pretty well and he was nice.
I think you got the cut & paste down pretty good already, now its just a matter of making everything blend well enough so they dont appear as c & p.
You can add some black lines there along the top of the doors to make it look like trim to clean up the jagged blue paint. Zoom in and erase the overlap on the fender vent. Find a suitable big brake and caliper pic and put them on a layer behind your rims.
Keep at it bro, you got a good start.
