Guess I am getting the piss taken out of me but it looks like the photographer shot those original shots outdoors at about 250th of a second or higher to get the strobes to be the dominate light source. To do the effect properly he should have set his white balance to tungsten then daylight balance the strobes using a warming gel. Then the background would be a cool blue while the car stayed warm rather than that overall milky HD look he ended up with.
- all the color temps of lights are the same, which is daylight. i really doubt any gels were used.betelgeuse

i should've read the thread through a little better though. to get that look in photoshop take a poorly lit strobe shot of a car and run the shadow/higlight filter on it so you get the milky shadows. you'd be better be better off with the raw shot though that way you could recover the shadows and do the lens vignetting allin the ACR.

I have an action that accents the darks in an image and use it all the time
1. duplicate layer
2. desaturate
3. change to blend mode softlight
4.change layer opacity to 30% (then adjust manually as needed)
