Hey man, awesome bike. The helmet turned out really good. I didnt know how to sticker bomb until this. I didn't even think of cutting them, let alone spraying it with acrylic

[@iRidetas]

Thanks man! It works really well that helmet still looks like that now!

[@BigBadWolfMoto]

The best sticker-bombed helmet I have seen so far!!!! I was thinking about the clear coat half way and BOOM!! You did it! Awesome!!!

[@RidinCountry]

BigBadWolfMoto looks awesome doesn’t it???

[@iRidetas]

Thanks 😁 clear coat really brought it together!!

[@OldManTony]

I remember the polycarbonate helmets from the 70s. They had warning stickers on telling you not to stick stickers on them hahahaha!

[@iRidetas]

Haha the irony there is hilarious and such a nod to a lot of saftey stickers and signs!!! 🤣🤣

[@angiefav1847]

Very nice l am a spray painter by trade the some people hate idea of painting helmet, doing clear over sticker is ok clear will not hurt helmet because clear is over a sticker if you want to remove these at a later date just peel stickers of clear coat will peel with sticker nice job

[@iRidetas]

Thanks mate, it was a bit of fun, still have it too!

[@BikerBits]

Great stuff mate... that would have been a very satisfying job! Looks great :-)

[@iRidetas]

[@alexwotherspoon5630]

[@volgnit]

Very cool and suits Gilby too mate. I guess that means I will have to buy me a helmet when I come over for a ride.

[@iRidetas]

Lol. All i heard was you are coming over for a ride!!! 😉 Thanks so much mate!

[@volgnit]

One day mate, one day !!

[@RidinCountry]

Haha that is awesome man!! Didn’t think of the clear coat, good idea!!

[@iRidetas]

Thanks. Wasnt sure how it would come out and was pretty happy. Have worn it a few times and got heaps of positive comments! 😁

[@RM2k3-GRP]

Reminds me of a Joke we make, if somebody puts too much sugar in the coffee, we ask "how do you like your sugar? you want coffee in it?" :P Just kidding of course, helmet it's pretty cool!

[@iRidetas]

Thanks mate i was happy how it came out. I know its not to everyone taste but i think its come out well. Lol now im thinking of coffee!!! Cheers! 😁

Very cool, that is a great looking helmet.

[@iRidetas]

Thanks mate was stoked with how it came out. Not to everyones taste but im stoked!

[@jeffsinfield2085]

You should be, it's a great look. However, if you're going hipster on the bobber you might have to grow a fairly decent beard, Lol. Maybe the last stage of the bobber re-build can be "what look should the rider of a bobber have to compliment the look of the bike".

[@iRidetas]

Haha i was thinking that. A beard and a wallet chain!!!

[@jeffsinfield2085]

Lol, I think you've got it.

[@AbdullahAsimAli]
