The Aria's are fibreglass/carbon fibre so you should be fine painting it. Just make sure you mask off the inside properly, block all the vents and use the correct primer.

How to paint a helmet?
yes, another painting question. has anyone (or know how to) painted his/her own helmet? I have an arai nicky hayden replica, but it tends to attract bees (at stoplights) and is a bit too loud for my maturing taste. i'd like to paint it matte black with a "S3" on both sides and a lightning bolt on the back.
i know there might be some safety issues, but if the painting isn't too intrusive to the protective structure, then i'd like to give it a go. your thoughts are as always much appreciated.

Or you could sell it and buy a new one in matte black. I think someone might want to pick up the Nicky replica for less than new. Maybe Cheap, to match his jacket...
thanks. i guess i haven't really considered selling it because i have so often been advised not to buy a used helmet (though it has never been dropped or involved in an accident). maybe i'll throw it out there and see if anyone's interested (after i buy a matte black helmet).
+1. I do the same thing with license plates and helmets.Mikey-s3 said:Keep it, put it on a shelve on the wall. Nice decoration!
