    Thanks man! Also, any ideas on what type/brand of visors are appropriate for this? There's a lot of them.

    I borrowed a dremel and cut the visor out I'm a bit lost on where to find a visor that wouldn't require a lot of tools, any ideas?

    For painting I plan on using spray paint, so is it best if I spray paint the helmet before or after putting the visor?

    Ah, I have yet to come up with an approach to make the visor, so I have just started applying the bondo but avoiding the visor area if that's alright. Thanks for the ideas though!

    Couple questions: - Do I apply the bondo before or after cutting the visor template? - If before, do I put it onto the template? - How much hardener do I put on the putty?

    When it was the pep cutout yes it did. The neck hole is too small, and I do not have a dremel on me right now. Is there any other tools that I can use?

    Alright it's been awhile. I'm on my first sanding now, and I am having a problem currently. After the fiberglass strips had dried, I tried putting the helmet on, and it seems to have shrunk to the point where my head cannot go inside it. I remember it fitting perfectly when it was just the pep...

    Update Pics #3 Jeez it was a pain to secure the strips, but alas I wasn't able to get access to a spray adhesive. I think I covered most of it, but please tell me if I missed any, I ran out of gloves lol.

    Ok, so I am starting to prep for fiber-glassing the inside of my helmet. Do I need to mix the resin with the hardener and paint it on the cloth strips, or do I just dip the strips into the resin and paste it on the inside?
