Ok somthing terrible happend to my helm when I started, when I fiberglassed the side I did'nt put enough foam in on the left side . So when I glassed it, it caved in. So I cut out the piece with my dremel made a new quick template. Im going to glass this after and il get some pics up to show you if it works. Here are some pics of the disaster and what ive done:

thats the helmet with the hole in it

with the quick template.
