Thinking about vinyling my front bumper on my red GPS in a grey vinyl, apposed to the standard black, can anyone photoshop this for me?

Below is a picture of my car, and the colour of the vinyl that I have available at work.....

Cheers in advance!

Vinyl available.... note its the dark grey (anthracite) not the light silver!

Thanks for clarifying that the light grey looks crap!

Heres a tip if you used photoshop, make a new layer out of the bit you wanted light grey.

Turn the layer to grayscale (to preserve the reflections etc) and then use the Hue/Saturation to colorize it to the color your looking to use.

This will produce a much more realistic and pleasing effect than painting a big f00k off grey blob over it.

Then to rub out the number plate and make its shape. Create a layer mask on the new layer you have turned grey and use the brush tool that way when you press x to change colour you can put it back if you mess it up.
