Default Local helmet painting

Hey I might be looking to have my Arai GP5 helmet painted. I searched and came up with a lot of airbrushed motorcycle helmets.

I am looking for someone who can help me/offer designs.

Design wise I'm looking for something similar to these... (either replica Schumacher helmet or a spin off using same color)







This is my helmet (now has red iridium visor)


Thanks guys!

I realize there are places online that I would have to ship the helmet to. I have already inquired about that and it's about $500 plus weeks without the helmet. And I'm crossing my fingers on an event coming up which I would need my helmet.

you can also find a vinyl place just to wrap it instead.

You may want to try LabKreationz or something like that on here. He is mostly a graffiti artist from what I have seen, but I am sure he can help you out. He has posted stuff all over this site

Depending on how serious you are... Troy Lee Designs® - For The World's Fastest Racers&#8482

Also maybe come up with your own paint & color scheme instead of copying the Schumacher look.
