    Kudos to Mike Charness for a quick turnaround with a rather impatient customer (me) !! Although many people think I'm too hard-headed to actually need a helmet, FCA events seem to mandate a brain-bucket as required apparel.

    We tried to keep the design -very- simple, but effective advertising. Mike was a champ with lots of communication, in-process pictures, and a very decent "Fchat friendly" price. www.helmet-painting.com

    Remember, I'm in a black 348, so a mostly black helmet was in order:

    He does nice work doesn't he? I carry mine with me to events that I am not even driving in just to show it off. I even sit it in the seat at car shows.

    I notice the side clip(s?). Are HANS devices track standard yet?

    No. I use those side clips to carry my lucky rabbit's foot. It looks funny while I'm driving, but it keeps my ear warm.

    Mike is an artist. He did my helmet too.

    Is that tree your family crest? It happens to be in mine too (my name translates into "the man from the forest").

    Sorry, this is a little O/T. Every time I see the name of your company (Ricambi), I sing this song in my head for 3 hours:

    OK, back to the subject... nice helmet.

    Nice work. I got my stunning CF knob from Mike. If I decide to get my Simpson customized I will shop w/ mike first.

    NO FEAR
