I would be interested in something like that. Skull cap and full face options would be cool too.

I'd buy 2 for sure. I've been looking into doing this since I got my Breakout last November.

Time & money. If you have more of one, you can get by with less of the other.

Nice mock-up!

I just ordered a "Mens Hard Candy Metal Flake 3/4 Gold Helmet" online from Barnett Harley-Davidson for $139 [with shipping]. It should look sweet with my Gold Breakout. I really like your design though (like I don't have enough helmets already...)

I'm not impressed with the Harley metal flake helmets personally (and I prefer full face modular).  Would definately be interested if someone on here developed some for the Breakouts- I don't have the creative skills or the time.

Did Gunslinger want you to send them your helmet and they would color match paint it with the new matching design?  When you find out how much, please let us all know.  That's a pretty cool photoshop design and great idea.

The problem is that the helmet hast to be spray chromed first, then painted over.  I've foune ONE guy that can do a helmet so far and its like $500....then another $500 from Gunslinger then $300 for the helmet.  It sounded like a good idea....but a $1300-$1500 dollar helmet.....thats a little steep.

It would be cool, but not that cool!

Just don't buy a Breakout from them. They wanted $31.5k.
