need help with pic

[Wade 10]

I am putting together a poster for an upcoming car show. I have all the angles I need except the top view of the car. I tried to get an overhead shot and without a large crane to lift me high or a wide angle lens, I can't get the whole car in one shot. So I took several photos and have been trying to piece them together into one picture.

 

Here is what I have so far:

I've been skewing, distorting and all kinds of stuff. I'm not that good with photoshop and trying to get this image done before Tuesday so I can get it on the poster and to the printer.

 

There is still a faint shadow of the right side wiper on the left where I had flipped the right side of the hood and layered on the left side to eliminate the glare.

 

There needs to be some blending done on the doors just behind the mirrors.

 

The rear window does not look quite right. This is probably easy for most, but I have put in tons of hours trying to get this right and I'm to the point of giving up :surrender:

 

Oh yead how about the front, does it look right? I think it needs to be stretched slightly wider.

 

the images I used to create that one are here:

If someone could patch this up for me it would be greatly appreciated.

I have CS4 but havent used it much. Width looks fine to me, these cars are like that! However, it looks like you need to rotate the nose from the windshield forward counterclockwise a few degrees. Draw a line down the center of the hood and it should be in the center of the trunk.

Thanks for the response. I took more photos and after many hours I got the poster done and took it to the car show today. I think many folks were just as impressed looking at the poster.

I know some graphic designers. I know how to use photoshop but I'm not that good.
