I finally managed to get hold of some sheets of reflective sticker material (from a sign writing shop) and got stuck into my hemet modification last week. It looks pretty sweet(if I say so myself) , as well as makes my helmet light up like Christmas decoration at night for commuting....
I have put up photos. I just need to finish it off by making a few minor changes.

And the craftwork was strangely therapuetic. Whoodathunk?

No, if its a Carbon, Kevlar or GRP helmet shell, paints allowed.

If its a Polycarb shell, its illegal, even though Aquabase paints wont harm them, they have no way of knowing what the paint formula was so they blanket ban them.

I've airbrushed and tagged up a few over the years, mostly MX helmets though. Troy Lee and his company Troy Lee Designs were my idols in my younger years.
IndocilArt inspired my own efforts with Slydesigns and AylumArt

But when you see what companies like ICON are producing its not really worth airbrushing a lid anymore. Their off the shelf creations kick ass!
