I miss the days of custom lids. I feel like they are on a comeback though. This helmet will compliment my Larry Ward tribute build nicely.

Excellent!! I'm doing a new RJ maddog helmet. I agree custom helmets seem to have been a victim of the recession. A lot of helmet painters out there would love to see a comeback!
Thanks, here’s one I had painted by Troy Lee back in 89.
Still looks decent for being that old and abused...
Brand new re-issued Bell Moto-3 with an old school 70's Team Honda design. This is actually done with vinyl wrap, not paint.
Thanks. Mike Taylor does good work. This was done in the 90’s. I saw mike’s name on some top guys helmets and then found out his shop was near where I live.
Edited Date/Time:
I know that that Mike Taylor had done helmets for JS7 years ago and even RC when he was a amatuer.
I still have both my old Bell’s painted by I believe it was Chris Zont of “Paint can Designs”. I’m too lazy but if some one really wants to see them I will post them.
Nice lids, thanks for sharing.

Love the Pastrana inspired lid. I'm working on a Pastrana lid currently. It still needs some work and clear coat, but I'm having fun with it.

Sorry guys. Best I can do with no sunshine.
They look better in person of course.

The second one is really awesome, it looks like an old Metzger helmet, you only miss the devil girl on the back
Thanks guys. I’m pretty glad I kept them all these years. Zont did Metzger’s helmets too, obviously you can see that in the style.
I think Zont works at Decal Works now?
I can’t remember if his first name was Chris or Mike for the life of me?
