Assuming its Bangers you're on about, its quite simple. Just merge the body panels together (driver's side, passenger's side, bonnet etc), assuming this isn't done already. Then turn them grey using the Ctrl + u thingy. Now copy the layer, and, making sure the copy is above the original, turn it (the copy) pure white (so you lose the details). Then make it an 'overlay'. You can now use the paint bucket to make this layer the colour(s) you want, instead of the white. Once you've made your signs etc, simply merge them onto this layer, then you're done.

 

Hope this helps :thumbup:
