The guy did helmets like this in the past he said. He said this one here had the best success so far. Prefect. No flaws. $350 on fiberglass.

That does look the nuts.

I noticed the whole lid is chromed, how do you intend to paint the black bits? Could the chromer not have just left the sections undone?

Sorry for the questions, I am soon to start my build and these are some of the things I need answers to. Soz!
