Twostrokeking, here is the short version of how I do it. I use the lasso tool (I prefer the polygonal lasso tool) to select what I'm going to change the color of. I just zoom in enough that in this case, the grill is filling the whole screen/work area and out line it closely. I then make a new layer and "Edit > Fill" it with the color I want to change the part to. Then I adjust the opacity of that layer till it looks right. After that I click back on the original picture layer and adjust the "brightness/contrast", "Vibrance", ect. till the reflections and shadows look realistic. Once all of that and any fine tuning is done, I deselect the object I was working with. That works pretty well with a lot of simpler color changes, if your starting with a good base picture. Hopefully I explained that clearly, I tend to have trouble explaining things like this.







I did one like you asked and one with the bed rails and tool box painted black.

Never heard of Gino, did you mean Gimp? I guess I should have took into account that you may not be using photoshop. I cant afford photoshop either. Either way like you said it should be similar, just different names for the tools.
