Can you recommend a great custom helmet paint company?

[Bertie]

Hi all

i really fancy getting a custom paint job on a lid. My daughter is really gifted at art/illustration but not 3D surfaces. I am really keen to find a company that could put her designs on a helmet for me. Anyone you would recommend? I'm in the Midlands

cheers

Rich-Art Concepts

I use Rich-Art Concepts for all my helmets. Costs vary and are based on your design brief. I would highly recommend the very personalised service that they provide and the result is always outstanding. They also provide race paint for a lot of the top riders in BSB and several in the WSBK and MotoGP paddocks. It's also worth noting that they are one of only a handful of Arai approved helmet painters in the UK such is the quality of their work.

Website and contact details are below.

When I get the chance I will post pictures of my current Arai helmet going through the different stages of painting. It might be interesting for some and shows just how much effort goes into it.

I've emailed Richard at Rich-Art as a starter to see what the waiting list is like. I think this could well be a plan!!

The best time to have one painted is normally at the end of the race season. I should think he will be quite busy at the moment doing pre-season testing paintwork for the BSB riders and also getting their race helmets ready for the 2018 season. He might surprise you but don't be disappointed if there is a bit of a wait. It will be well worth it though as he is widely regarded within both the 2 and 4-wheeled race communities as one of the best helmet painters in the country.

Thanks for starting this thread Bertie its really got my interest, so much so I've just bought a new BMW Race helmet on eBay. There is a garage in Belfast selling them off brand new for ?199 absolute bargain and its one of the few helmets to fit my square head.

Now to think of a design...........

Heres a link to the seller, he has other great helmet deals.

Got a few ideas Rhys, maybe a bit off the wall for some but personal to me, you bet.

Bikepaints in Cuparmuir are Arai authorised too and they did my bike and stuff for Stuart so will see what they think.

Amazing Jimmy. I just sent Deirdre a panel in for repair she got it yesterday.

How much is that lid normally and does he usually sell gear on EB or is it a one off ?.

Think its about ?460 Stuart, never even knew about the guy until this morning. He's got a phone number further down the listings if you want him to get something for you.
