I might have said it somewhere else but I dont know the wheels definately need work, a lot of it.and try turning down the bright ness on the racing seats layer aside form that whats you did to the car actually looks pretty good, keep it up.
 
The seats need to look like they're behind glass, so add a layer above them of white with low opacity.

The wheels are way too large to be functional, make them a tid smaller.

When you lowered it, you forgot to extend the rear wheelwell down, so it still looks like you have a trunk, just add a little black under the existing one, making sure not to go over the body.

The vents on the side need to be adjusted a little to conform with the body, the rear needs a little more blur around the edges and the front one needs a better color match.
 
Not to be mean or degrading in any way, but...

















OMG!!!!!11one1!!1! Its teh suxorzz11!!11!1!!!!!1111!one1!!1!!



























In all honestly it could be alot worse. It's fairly obvious that this was one of your first attempts, and I commend you for having the balls to actually post it here. Here's a few tips for the modifications you did:
  • For the Lowering job: You did a very good job selecting the body of the car, top notch 👍. However, this is something that even the most experienced choppers miss (and very frequently). Look behind the tires and into the wheel-wells. Do you see how you can still see the original car's body through it? This happens to just about everyone, and the solution is simple. First, select the areas that should be dark or black with the Polygon Select tool. Next, make it completely black (you've gotta know how to do that, whether maxing the settings on the paintbrush tool or a more complex method). Once this is done, you have 1 of the problems solved!
  • For the rims: I'm gonna tell you the truth; unless there is actually a tire on the car, it's not really gonna go anywhere. What am I saying? Your rims are far too large. Granted, the original rims left something to be desired, but still, you need to be able to see some of the tires from the side. I think you know how to fix this problem (just make the rims even smaller than you have them).
  • For the Bad Boy Bonnets (eyelids), you did really good; I don't think I could've done better myself.
  • For the side intake and the vent-thing on the bottom of the bumper: you did pretty well with those for a beginner, but you should probably learn to blend hem better (the silver intake actually doesn't look that bad, but the vents need a little tweaking). A good way to accomplish this goal is to use the point-color-select tool (eyedropper) and select the color of the car (right in the area you're trying to put the part). Then, on the part, use the magic wand or the poly lasso to select the colored parts (not the black parts, just the colors). Now, hit Ctrl+U if you're using Photoshop (it looks like you are) and you'll be brought to a popup menu. Hit the checkbox for "Colorize" in the bottom right corner, and you'll be brought to the colorize screen. Now, it is important that you adjust the saturation level first, as Photoshop has a strange tendency to reset it to 25% (for me anyway). Drag the slider to the right until the color of the part matches up with the color of the body (as close as you can; if you're finding that it's too dark or too light, move down a slider and adjust that one VERY VERY SLIGHTLY). Now, that's the method I use for blending parts.
  • The seats: No offense, but don't use them. If you want to give the illusion that your interior has been modded, just tint the windows to the point where you can't really see any detail on the inside. This can be done by selecting the windows, and creating a couple new layers out of them. Next, set the blending mode to multiply on the new window layers, and you'll be left with a royal window tint (if you did it right). This next part's not really necessary unless you're going for uber-realism. Select the windows on the other side of the car (the side facing away from you). Make sure that you haven't caught any of the seats/mirrors/frame in the process, and then create a new layer out of these. Set this layer to multiply and set the opacity to 50%. This will give you insanely realistic tints; if you did it right.
  • As for the stickers; lighten up on them. Stickers, contrary to popular belief (not to be degrading to you in any way), but they do not make the car go any faster. Granted a sticker here and there can make it look better, but don't overdo it.
  • Your spoiler is top-notch, it's just a bit off-kilter.
  • Good job on whiting out the lights.
