Sweet!
Looked through their gallery, some of those helmets are totally sick! I'll bet having the hottest noggin' cover could get to be addictive, it's obvious folks are dropping some serious coin to have the latest, flashy-est stuff.
Good luck over there!

I almost need a new helmet but it is a little too expensive for my bank account...

How much would you charge to repair a little chipping in my gelcoat and do a little painting. I was thinking of maybe 5 colors at the most. I want a helmet for the girlies so I can take them for rides on my bike. :agree:

Maybe a VKG logo on the back if thats cool with the group. Don't want to infringe on any copyrighted material.

hey BG a paint job like that 5 colors would cost about 700 because of the time to work with each color.

Ouch.... thats a little too rich for bank account. Thanks anyway Vincent. I guess the girls will get a spray painted helmet with a sticker on it...

Maybe I'll just repaint it black and clearcoat over a sticker...

Thanks Vincent... :agree:
It will probably be a few weeks before I think I have enough time to paint it.
