Never mind, that was excruciating and had to come up with some unusual ideas to make it work at least a little bit XD.

not perfect but this is my try...

Usually changing colors is easy but something about that pic just wasn't letting me get it right.

The main problem with changing colors is when you have to change white to black or black to white while conserving texture and light, in this case, the white it's easier depending on how is approach you can subexpose it and use a blend mode like multiply and its done (you for sure will have some halo problems to fix... )

but for example the wheels (i assume it was the inside wheel but maybe was just the rubber band like carlbush did ) for the second it's no problem at all, but try to change pure black metal to yellow neon XD (i had to change it completely using another image...... maybe there is a way but I couldn't find it.

Again thanks all for trying it was only to give me a idea of what scheme to go with I’ll just have to take the plunge and hope I like the outcome
