Basically, I'm looking for ways to take a picture of a vehicle and play around with the paint jobs before I commit to spraying the first drop of lacquer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,

See attached .xar file.
This is not supposed to be realistic in anyway, but it is quick (less than ten mins) and gives a general idea.
Make the background layer visible, then make each of the other layers visible in turn ..
"Intbel" ... "Can't" is not an option.
Compliance is futile. Resistance is futile. Just do your own thing an' ignore 'em.
Read Editing Named Colors. You can create an illustration using Named colors and then modify the color and change all instances of that color.

... and have a look at the Mini in the clipart ('Example Xara X Drawings 2') .
I get the impression he wants to take a photo of his car, drop it into Xara and just play with the paint job colours. I envisage a stroll along...

If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:
Avoiding Manual Labour.
It can be done with a bit of tracing & transparent tool set to stained glass.
The more complex the car the more complex the task. I would like to send the .xar file for you to play with placing the different colours over the car but at the moment it is 385k. once I work out how Egg achieves this I will do it if required.
a variation on a theme.

Tried another which was gray in colour. The fiat above was a bitmap this is one is a vector. why not send a photograph and lets see what you want to colour.

This car is similiar to the one I'm building (in scale of course) and I'm wanting to play around with paint jobs before I commit.

Kyle, how does the front look in my attachment. I used Xara Xtreme to change the colour.
