Start processing the metallic parts. Paint them, applying the same method we did with the car itself. Choose for them the grey-dark and white colors.
And the other disk:
Process the windows too:
And finally - the tires (we should use in this case only the dark color):
Merge down all the layers now, except the background's layer: Layer – Merge Down (ctrl+e). Change after that the background with the Gradient Tool.
Insert now the car's shadow. We need firstly to copy the car's layer, by moving it on the new layer's icon in the Layers window. Represent the car in this layer in black color, selecting next options: Image – Adjustments – Brightness/Contrast.
Move this layer lower than the basic one by distorting it a little, using Edit – Transform – Distort.
Then we should blur out a little the shadow on its horizontal position, selecting the next option: Filter – Blur – Motion Blur.
Paint the new layer, situated above the background's one in lily-light color, taken from the car with the Eyedropper Tool. Then we should change the layer's Blending Mode on Screen.
On this new layer we should make darker a certain part of the background. It's necessary to apply in this case the Gradient Tool. Then change the layer's Blending Mode on Overlay.
Insert then on the grey parts of the car the reflexes. Select again on a new layer the Gradient Tool for this manipulation and change the layer's type on Soft Light. Minimize the Opacity also till 50%.
