I think it's pretty cool what can be done with sticker kits now. I got an extra one with white base and red and black swirls that blends better on my cue ball, but the red matches my red and yellow One Ind. gear better. Not bad for $99...














Edit: Done by the guys at Dirtdna.com

Ridge, it's the same as doing your bike graphics. Went on pretty easy.

Doc, it was done by Dirtdna.com, they have a pretty cool black on black one coming out in the new Dirt Rider. They have a Facebook page too.

It's based off the same red and black swirl graphics kit on my Crf.

Oh, your Magoo story was awesome!

You scared me. I thought that Ii was going to see something like this. The sticker kit looks pretty cool how much of a pain was it to put the flat sticker on a round object?

Those sweet skins were my second choice!

A heat gun works wonders but it was no more difficult than most modern rear fenders or the right side number plate.

I had Miek at LG1 do mine....it was kinda tough to put one but not nears as bad as I was expecting. He uses a really killer material that once you hit it with a heat gun it evaporates the soapy water and adheres the material perfectly. I think it came out pretty good. Its an easy way to transform a helmet for under $100

Mine is done in car wrap material and has the same thick 16mil clearcoat as the bike graphics.

Here's a few more they have done with black base color on black helmets.

Slippy, dude this one is the bomb! The black base look 10x's better IMO

This almost has a little Bradshaw flare to it...just a hint of it...

Putting stickers on Fibreglass helmets is ok but you shouldn't put stickers on a helmet with a Polycarbonate shell (eg the cheaper Fox helmets) as the adhesive will erode the plastic.

I agree for sure the black on black looks bad ass! It looks the best if you use the same base color as your helmet. The ones Jeffro and BigDaddy posted up look really good with the white on white also!

I was trying for red to match my bike and gear, but now I might peel it back and give my helmet a coat of red PPG to help the stickers blend better. That's the beauty of it... they're just stickers. Smile

Some white on white.
