It would be better if you try out a Cross / LS2 helmet and figure out what size suits you first. Otherwise you might end up with a helmet that is too big / loose or too tight. And 3 - 5 k down the drain.

you can paint it your self with some practice..
just buy a spray paint and paint it black..
i did it...attaching the pics..
cost 250/- for the spray paint...go for matte black it looks awesome..i have painted my white helmet to black.. it had some graphics which i dint like..hehe

Any links we could refer to?
