Please could someone help with changing the colours in a photo I have, it's driving me (literally) round the bend. Doesn't help when the highlights need to be in a different colour than white or a lighter shade than the body colour. Yes it's a TVR, don't you just love their colour combinations :lol:

I think you're in the wrong section...

but you can change colours in photoshop by using the Hue function in the Image menu. Choose Image>Hue/Saturation>click Colourize> then use the slider to find your new colour.

You can also use the Replace Colour function.

it will change the whole image so i would assume that you need to isolate the car first from its background.

You can find lots of tut's on doing this colour change>
