I usually prefer something like 1024x1024 for my image planes, and I'll put the top/side/back, etc. on top of each other setting the layer mode to "Multiply" in PS so you can see all of them on top of each other at the same time. That way you can line them up to be the same. Hope that helps!

MAny thanks, i tried a different method, but will try this method right now

i always use this method.... seems to work!!

i load up the image planes in all the views, THEN!

I make just poly planes than align it to say the bumper in the front viewport.

Then i go to the side move the image plane to the bumper and just keep doing that to...

the roof

window

doors .. ect hope this helps! Its a pretty handy technique :)
