| Criteria | Golden Hour | Studio |
|---|---|---|
| Reflections | Soft sky reflection, long gradients, flattering body lines | Precise control with scrims and flags; risk of sterile look |
| Paint Color | Warm bias; metallic paints glow but can shift hue | Neutral and repeatable color with calibrated lights |
| Wheels & Chrome | Natural sparkle, risk of blown highlights | Controlled speculars with polarizers and diffusion |
| Background | Cinematic environment, dynamic skies | Clean, distraction-free, compositing-friendly |
| Setup Time | Fast, time-window dependent | Longer setup, flexible schedule |
Good to know
Upload any photo of a car, select a mod, and our AI generates a photorealistic edit in seconds. The AI understands car geometry, lighting, reflections, and shadows to produce results that look like real modifications. You can stack multiple edits on the same photo. For example: change the paint, swap the rims, and add a body kit.
We offer 12 mod categories: Paint Job, Rim Swap, Body Kits, Custom Wraps, Carbon Fiber, Suspension, Spoilers, Exhaust, Headlights, Front Bumper, Window Tint, and Neon Underglow. That is 119 preset options in total, plus AI Styles like JDM, Cyberpunk, and Muscle.
Car Editor is free to open and browse. Generating AI edits is paid, and the current options and prices are listed on the pricing page. What you see there is what you pay at checkout. Plans can be cancelled anytime. In the iOS and Android apps, prices are shown before you subscribe.
Car Editor is free to open and browse. You can explore every mod in the web editor without an account. Generating AI edits on your own photo is paid. See the pricing page for the current options.
The web editor at car-editor.com/editor/ runs in any modern browser on desktop and mobile. Native apps are also available for iOS and Android.
We accept JPEG, PNG, and WebP images up to 8 MB. For best results, use a clear, well-lit photo of the car from a standard angle. The AI works best with photos where the full car is visible.
Pro Monthly and Pro Yearly include a commercial licence, so you can use your renders for client work, listings, marketing and paid social. Cheaper options are personal use only.
The AI preserves your car's original reflections, shadows, panel gaps, and environment. Metallic and pearlescent finishes show realistic flake and light behavior. Results are accurate enough that body shops and wrap installers use them as reference photos.
The AI works with any car regardless of make, model, or year. BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Tesla, Ford, Toyota, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Honda, Nissan: any car you can photograph, we can edit.
Unlike manual Photoshop work that takes hours, our AI generates photorealistic edits in seconds. It understands 3D car surfaces, renders paint that follows body curves, preserves realistic reflections, and produces metallic/matte/pearl finishes that look physically accurate. No design skills needed.
