Another one for Tyler at Censport.

He did mine and I was thrilled. He will do the next one as well.

To me his designs just stand out from the others and I looked at all the heavy hitters.

I think mine was around $600, but my design is kinda' simple...like me.

That said, I have been very impressed with Tylers work.

I've played with lots of helmets from lots of different painters.

Consistently the best ones I've seen are from Indocil Art just south of Charlotte. The finish quality is second to none.

I will use no other painter for my lids.

I used Axcel Fast Graphics in Arcadia CA, my design, fairly simple one at that, I paid $600. I'm happy.

Mike Charness at www.helmet-painting.com did my last lid and I was very pleased. You can go mild to wild on the pricing, depends on how many colors and how intricate a design.
