Working on a little project - will need to get three helmets (half-shell/skateboard style) painted with custom graphics. Anybody still in that business? All my 'old' contacts long gone. Who do you recommend?

The obv main man around these parts has to be Troy Lee - if he still does individual helmets. It’s been years since he painted one for me.

Wow. Haven't heard that name in Ages! I have one of his desert jackets I bought at the Sand Sports show, over a decade ago!

Rob Taylor Custom Graphics down in East County San Diego might be an option. He’s a good friend of mine. You name it, he’s painted it.

HAHA - he used to paint all my helmets in the 80's when I spent a lot of time in the desert riding and then again when I use to kart. I would also see Indy Car guys having there helmets done and the factory motorcycle guys etc.

This guy?

That's the guy -- I have one number in Temecula and another number in Oceanside -- but neither seem to be working.

Temecula area -- was hoping to get in touch with Pete Finlan but none of the numbers I have seem to be working?

562-435-6409 is the number I have for him. Hopefully it's still a good number. Hard to beat Pete. The guy is on another level when it comes to custom paint.

If you want the best Jason Beam at Beam Designs. He is the helmet painter to the stars. He's done a lot of helmets for me over the years and his work is second to none!

Another vote for Troy Lee. His website says that he still does custom paint but the link is broken? He's gotta be getting older these days.
