Photo references for cars?

michi.be

I'm looking for good photos of car parts like headlights, backlights and such stuff so I can do textures from it.
Other details are appreciated. No racing cars but common brands like VW, BMW and so on.

Maybe there are some good sites on the net. Otherwise I need to leave my dark cave and enter daylight with my cam.

I have never found any decent resource website for those (and I've looked plenty for the past 5 years). Instead, I taught myself how to paint them from scratch. If you want I can do a little tutorial on that?

A tutorial would be nice altough it could be easier for me just to photograph some lights on cars.

That was fun to do. I really like that sort of texturing. You'll see it's nothing too complex and just a bunch of tricks.
