hi
thanx
well i just wanna put the logo on the car , like a promo car would have but without distorting or streching the logo itself. Also it looks more like a toy / plastic car, was just wondering if anyone had any advice when setting the surface editor for the car metal and weels to look more realistic.

thanx
