The Josh Grant replica is still not available yet and the first graphic is just an additional color to the Illusion graphic.

Good luck with the simple, solid color. I am pretty sure you can still order plain white from everyone.... but then its just plain white.

I have had several xtreme helmets over the years and love them, not too expensive and they have some simpler graphics.

At this point everything except the Josh Grant replica is due into the U.S. by the end of October. Any local dealer should be able to order them and I would guess all the major online dealers will have them on their sites. You can also check out www.shoei.com for a better look at the helmets. There are more helmets on their webiste too including the Kevin Windham replica and the Metal Mulisha graphics as well.

Hope this helps.
