Helmet help

Postby Craig. » Fri Jan 18, 2008 5:11 pm

Just a follow on from the racing license post.
Does anyone know where I might find some information on the helmet design that Nick Heidfeld has, by that I mean the heat changing paint scheme. I want to get some pricing ideas but have no idea of its proper name. I've got the design I would use already planned out. I know it's going to be pricey aswell. So this is more a research rather than I'll be buying monday morning thing

The helmet that he wears is a Schuberth, but the type i'm not to sure but i've a feeling its the "S1 Nordic Dragon" version.

Save the money Craig, motorsport is expensive enough, without wasting money on a helmet design that won't make you go any faster.

Probably the same over here...

Motorcycle Helmets are coated with transfers, and then Lacquered to "fix" them.

Painting a Helmet is not to be recommended. Many paints will destroy the integrity of the Helmet material, Plastic, Kevlar, or Fiberglass...;)...!
