Default Custom Paint on Helmets

I had to order a new helmet for running at the track and want to do a a little something to decorate it up with. I'd like to see what others have done if they have done something to help give me some ideas.

I painted mine Millenium Yellow to match my C5. GM sells small spray cans in OE colors. It took two cans. I water sanded it and clear coated it. The paint came out great. When I tried to glue the molding back on, I screwed it up a little though.
