Well, for PTMing, it can sometimes be a little tricky. Sometimes I can get handles/mirror caps spot on, other times it's kinnda evident.
Chrome, usually, you have to decrease contrast some since paint doesn't normally have the mirror shine of chrome. Use adjacent paint panels as a guide. From there, use colorize or colorify (I normally use colorize.) Try to get as close as you can in the shade and saturation (for this one I put the color all the way to the right, and the saturation almost maxed out, but left the lightness a little light.)
Uses the Brightness/contrast tool to get a little closer. Color Balance might be needed to give some final touches (in this case, I put a little bit of yellow to better match up with the bumper's red.)
You might have to zoom in and use the clone tool to get any jagged edges of chrome you missed. I guess that's the advantage of PS, you have smoother edges, especially with the magic lasso.
