    Hey everyone.

    As most of you know i have a blue and black hjc helmet (with a red GSXR) SOOOOOO im looing at getting a plain black lid. As my lid is only a year old and is in perfect nick i was wondering if you knew of anyone that can spray it plain black at a good price?

    Yes yes i know i sound girly now with all the colour issues but hey we have to look good!

    I know the guitarist in Wildwood (band) does some helmet spraying, but he's more artwork stuff than plain black. Might be worth a chat? Can put you in touch with him via Facebook...

    Each to their own, but i'm not a fan of the colour co-ordernation thing. It smacks of style over substance. What happens when you change your bike?
    It's a bit like the bloke who turns up for a kick around in the park wearing a full Chelsea kit.

    This is just my opinion and the world would be a sad place if we all thought the same.

    I know it's childish, but I can't help chuckling everytime someone says 'helmet spraying'.

    It's almost as funny the large 'shiny purple helmet' at the bike show - that had that as the sign on it!

    As said above, i'm more into the art stuff than straight resprays - but to be honest, it only costs a little extra for art work than a plain colour, there's still the same amount of prep work required

    some of my stuff

    Excuse the hijack x

    I had to change my Chris Walker rep for a less full on lid when I got rid of my matt black GSXR for a Red and White triple , toned it down and exchanged the full 1 piece leather power ranger suit for a more retro looking bike jacket and dragging jeans to be more in keeping with the style of the triple

    I mean fgs orange, yellow and purple with a red and white bike , after all biking is not just about the machine its looking good too daaaaaahling !

    You go get that lid painted whatever colour you want chick !

    Nothing wrong with a plain black lid - I've got at least two of them! 8-)
