I’ve been using this pretty basic white Zamp helmet completely unadorned for about two years now, so I decided to spice it up a bit with some stickers I had lay ing around.

IF I FUCK UP TELL ME SO I CAN LEARN TO BE BETTER MOTHER FUCKER

I have Flyin’ Miata and 949 Racing stickers above and to the right of the SORRY sticker but they’re white/invisible.

The stickers made their race debut last weekend at the first time attack event of the season. I only remembered I had the Renown Oppo sticker the other day, so it’s absent from the video, but it’s in a good spot to be picked up by the camera the next time around:

So what about you, Oppo? Are your helmets stickered up? Painted? Bare carbon?

I’m currently rocking a HJC HX-10 III. I prefer an open face but current needs required a closed face.

Kinja'd!!!

I decided to remove the HJC logo from the forehead of the helmet, but left the visor strip. I prefer a cleaner helmet and the logo made it a bit busy.

On the back I left the HJC Logo and added an HMS Motorsport sticker. HMS has been good to me and I buy all my gear from them. I need to add a Team O’Neil sticker at some point. I’m probably going to remove the HMS and SNELL sticker and put an O’Neil Drift School sticker at the bottom, and then put a new HMS sticker above that. Depending on spacing I may or may not pull the letters from the HJC logo.

Mine is so basic. It’s the grey from the factory. I need to get a design done and have it painted before it gets confused with everyone else’s

I think it would look a lot better without the HJC MOTORSPORTS lettering on the back!

I looked into having mine painted around the time I got it... it would have been about the same price as the helmet itself. And at that price of helmet+paint , I could have bought a carbon fiber helmet instead.

Not going to waste your time with my helmet. Only thing on it that states a race/track event is a Track Night of America sticker from 2018.

Sadly, all the other track days I attend only use “circle yard sale stickers” as proof of passing inspection.

DON’T THEY KNOW I NEED HELMET SWAG!?

I've got the exact same helmet as you, no stickers on it yet though. My other helmet is covered in stickers. But it's an open face so I can only use it for autox.
