I would like to mirror a car, to look into the other direction, but i realsied when i flip horizontally, that the steering wheel also flips and goes to the other side Its the same with the texts and graphics on the car... I tried to replace it with the original and free transform it to the right position but is doesnt works. I also tried the perspective and the warp transform tools but without success... Any idea?

thx in advance

Tint the windows is the most realistic option open to you.

Basically what the hermit says.

I would recommend searching for an other picture of the car, in the direction you'd like it to be. As the steering wheel is the obvious indicator of mirroring an image, the text and the logo's on both the bonnet and rims are too, as would be the fuel cover for the experts on this model. These are all relatively easy fixes though (if it's really hard to find the image to your liking).

Alternatively you could search the web for a 3D model of it and position how you'd like it using Photoshop's (CS6 or higher) 3D tools. This would be really time consuming though.
