Painted my helmet and bike!

I'm a Subaru mechanic and often wish they made motorcycles, so with some YouTube inspiration, I got an airbrush, some fineline tape, and helmet-safe paint for this. It turned out okay for a first time project, at least better than I imagined, and was super fun to do over the span of a weekend. If you've been on the fence about DIY-ing a paint job, just make the jump and try it! It's worth the effort and so satisfying to be able to say you did it yourself.

Helmet: 509 Mach V Commander

Bike: 2002 Kawasaki ZZR1200
