are you using polygons to model the car?

if you are... then select your model then convert to SubDivs and... that's all. you get an soft edged model.

one tip: when you model with polygons in maya... keep your model as simple as posible, subdivs gives you the necesary resolution to accomplish the work in the way you want.

cheers.
