Texturing a race car

[Kabab]

What software are you using;

In maya i would use a textured layers, the base texture a blinn with a good reflection map or ray tracing.

I would then create another material for the stickers and map projection maps to it with alpha maps you might be able to use a double switch to tidy things up.

Thanks for your reply, I'm using 3D Max 5 ans I'm not sure how to use the alpha transparency, (eg: map channels to use and how to use them with the UVW maps) does anyone know of any tutorials for this
