No affiliation, just want to post a big ThumbsUP for Drew. He did a great job for me. I am too lazy to post pictures but it is a show stopper.

I am not a wealthy guy, but after looking at my bike for a month, I sent him an extra $50 as a thank you tip. It was that good, and he was still under-paid.

Ben, THANKS AGAIN:D...it was great working with you. I'd love to see some pics of the bike together if you have any. You can just shoot them to my email if its a pain in the ass to post them up here. Hopefully I'll see you at the track soon.

I'll post some helmet pics up soon. Unfortunately I'm missing pics of a lot of the lids I've done, but I have a few. I'm still looking to add a lot more race themed helmets to the portfolio though, and pretty much anything is possible with unlimited quality.

Hopefuly all PM's and emails have been returned...looking forward to working with you guys:D
Things are busy, but I'm working a lot of overtime at the shop so turn around time is still pretty quick for top quality.

Looks good and the fade on the lower is very nice. I'd love to see some pictures of the stuff mounted. If you guys get the chance please post some pics once you get them on the bike.

very impressive work! out of curiosity, i assume a white helmet is the best base to paint, but can you paint over helmets that already have graphics on them, and how much does it affect the end result or price?

Thanks a lot, I appreciate the nod!

Any solid color helmet is all good to paint on...white, black, or sliver are definitely the best!

The problem with graphic helmets is that most of them are actually vinyl layed under clear, and the glue/adhesive on the vinyl can wreak havok on the new paint that goes on top. I can paint graphic helmets as well, but it does take a lot more work to strip all that stuff off there, usually at least $75 - $100 more:doh:
