Better. But dude, slow down. Start simple. So, the chop. The carbon fiber is too dark and off-hue, the wheels are off angle, blurry, and the rear (wheel) is flat. The vent is choppy, and the z3 vent is off angle, plus what looks like gold mesh inside . And the mesh in front is off angle and a little too dark. Dont take all of this as rude or b*tchy, just tryin to give you advice. it actually looks pretty good. Keep at it.

WOW!
you see a ton of things i didn't even notice. The only thing I was having doubts about is that vent at the back. But now as you say these things, i can honestly see what you mean with the carbonfibre and the mesh in front. any advice how i can get the mesh to fit better??
thanks btw.

One of the best tools you'll ever use in photoshop is the Free Transform > Distort. Use that to get your mesh and other parts, like wheels, to match the angle of the original image.

Well that may explain it! I've never used that tool before. I mosly use warp, skew and scale. are distort better?

It can be. You need to be able to use all of them.
