Default Helmet Skinz

Ok photo's to follow but kudo's to Mike at Helmet Skinz. I am getting ready to go autocrossing with the vette, and of course had to have a helmet. Got a great deal on a Snell M2005 Pyrotect from JCSpeed, they picked up the shipping, as well as being the least expensive. But it was after all a plain white full face. Thats were Helmet Skinz comes in, like the name implies its a cover (skin) for the helmet but its custom. They have my SCCA number 314, my name on the helmet skin which is a blue color to match my car. But what was cool was they put Corvette Racing and the flags on the skin. Looks very nice and protects the helmet from scratches. Great product, very responsive vendor and very professional work. All for $30.00.

Motovation Racing

http://www.motovationracing.com/

I am not easily impressed but this guy is good. I gave him a .jpg of the Corvette Racing on a black background. He cut it out of the black background and put it on the helmet skin the way you see it. The amazing thing is only $30 bucks.
