bored with photoshop.. opinions?

so i just got PS CS4 and was fooling around this morning.. i'm not very good so i did my best using blur, copy and paste, and paintbrush to remove my license plate, edit the road, and change the background.. the background probably wasn't the best to use, but I took the first one that looked alright.. what are everyone's thoughts?

Before:

After:

your blur pretty much ruined the pic, you also forgot to chop out the trees in the windows.

The car is suppose to pop out, and be sharp, and the background is supposed to blur, I think that is your major problem. The car is blurry around the edges but the background is sharp, this just looks odd which makes it obvious its a PS. Try it again and don't blur the edges, it should be better

Is it possible to chop out those ugly, poorly-fitting wheels? Even oem 17's look better...
