This is the kite mark, I tink, not the FIA sticker, or whatever you call it, I think.

I hope you are right, aparently there was a blue one, a red one and hologram. The hologram is still on it.

You can definitely get the sticker (my MSA one is blue) from the scrutineer for a small fee

The blue sticker is not the issue, mits the red one thats missing, this is the one the scutes look for before issuing a blue one frown

I fear I am going to have to buy a new helmet

Just looked at mine and it hasn't got a red sticker? Not on the inside either?

What? That's ridiculous. You may have been unlucky and spoke to someone who was in 'jobsworth' mode.

No, he was very helpful, there are absolutely no stickers, no labels, so no traceability.

There is a slight chance that the guy doing the work has found something, fingers crossed.

I had my helmet painted and had no problems with scrutineering?

Worse case buy a really cheap helmet to present for Scrutineers then......;)

All sorted thanks to everyone.

I will say this, Didi is fantastic, brilliant service and I will be taking my next crash hat to him to get painted.
