OK, got it down to 220 today.
I could not keep from taking it apart.
I am just liek that. I have to mod everything.

Increased the vent sizes from and back.
small round file, small flat, did the trick just fine.

I also called TLD and new liners come in blue black and red.
but i think i will just wash mine for now.

As for the rubber edging the guy @ TLD said use some
motocycle winsheild edging. its about he same stuff.
so tomorrow i'll go look around for that.

What i am planing is all pearl white with carbon bcdracing.com
and maybe rallysmurf across the back.

Heheh, that's awesome. I don't know why more sponsors do something like that.... For example, if I were Jagermeister, I'd sponsor every single redbull rider I could get my hands on.

My friends wife is about to have a baby. He is stoked. I decided to supply him with his kids first bike helmet. It's just a baby helmet, but I am very pleased with how it turned out.

"Burr" is his last name, if you were wondering.

Also...they are not decals.

those $$ bills aren't airbrushed... right? printed-off and applied somehow. if it is then that's friggin' awesome detail work.
couple ways u can do it.
a. real money
b. scan money, print it with a thermal printer and cut it out
c. waterslide (ink fades and doesn't hold up to UV)
d. airbrush...cutting out masks for that would be a nightmare
