sure thing, well pretty much i had alot of reference photos to start off with, then i started the shape with a simple plane, and just extruded the edges til i got the basic shape of the headlight area, then once i have the whole shape of the headlight i then go back and chamfer all the edges that i need to and go over it to make sure everything runs smoothly. so basically start with a plane and extrude the edges til you have the shape you want. may be more time consuming than others but its the way i like to do everything pretty much.
so anyways, im not expert in anyway but the reason i came on here was to just show you what i've been messin around with for a car paint. btw since im at home right now, the model shown in the following pictures is not the most up to date model its an older one that i just used for test renders. anyways hope you like the new car paint

let me know what you think of it.
