Hi scott.
Chop is looking great at the moment, but theres a few simple mistakes with the chop so far, hope this helps
Posted Image

-The front Bodykit is off angled, I know this because I drew lines parallel with the r32 grill and moved it around to the Fb area, it's a crucial to get the bodykit centered before starting the brushing as it'll make life easier. Hope you will remember this tip for future chops :)

-As you can see the tire's are a bit red/ orang-ish, so just try to select the Tyre area and lower the saturation
( Image > adjustment > hue & saturation)

-The shadow of the tyre area is also too light, so just darken that area a bit with the burn tool.

-As for brushing tips, just look at how the car reflects with the surrounding, then look at the shape of the bodykit and try to determine which area should be bright/ dark (shown with the yellow arrows)

Oh and Welcome to Vm, happy chopping!! :)

Thanks man, yeah google images is good but its hard to find exactly what you want at the right angle, like just a street scene is hard to find the right key words n stuff.
