Best place to have a bike helmet painted?

[ro_butler]

Hi,

I do not normally post in this forum but I figured you would be the guys to ask. If I were to buy a plain white helmet where would be a good place to get it painted (prefferably in the south east but I don't suppose posting a lid is a problem)?

I don't want anything fancy just a few plain colours but not the rather 'busy' looking designs that seem to be for sale at bike shops.

Thanks in advance.

Rob.

Make sure whichever helmet you buy can be painted. From memory, polycarbonate helmets (i.e. cheap ones) can become brittle after being painted.

Yeah, and not the Visor! Got the visor of mine painted once with a scene from the Bayeaux Tapestry.

Worst £200 I've ever spent.

I had magic mushrooms painted on a helmet of mine when I was 19.

Boy did I get pulled lots! The thought of rubber gloves brings tears to my eyes.

A mate of mine used to glue wigs to his lid and stick false noses on his visor. I used to my cockrel off! Anyone remember Mods having fox tails out the back of their open face lids? All good fun.

This world is to PC for the likes of an old (44) biker like me!

Oh I'm going off on one now. Think I will start a new topic for the old fart bikers like me on here!
