Ok so I come back to this project to finish it.

First thing I modded the visor on the Rubies...the rim under the visor was too thick and I also added the little "edge"on the top:

Made a mistake with painting my helmet that was a lot of work for me.
Never forget to use silicon remover BEFORE painting.Or you must wash all the paint away later! :bang:

So I washed the helmet complete with Aceton...

New primer...

And the red paint...

And FINISH...

An autobody shop actually painted the helmet for you?

I used Rustoleum Gloss Regal Red and it was pretty solid.
