decal good? about to buy a helmet like right now

[FNG]

Thank you. Im glad you approve. Seems like you know your stuff . Atleast I didnt over pay for it and I defiently like the salty ones

Looks like it's good. You did all right at $400, but as others have pointed out buying one in better shape even at twice the money might be a better investment. However, nothing wrong buying a legitimate helmet with some condition drawbacks if it fits your budget better and makes you happy.

Im wih you on that! Maybe one day Ill find one in a antique shop or something a Nice vet bring back.

But there isnt. Atleast I wont money out of it. Ill post pictures next week when I get it

Hello everyone...

Just got helmet today and wanted to post pictures as promised. Its cloudy out but managed to take the best i could outside. Im very happy with it since all said and done it cost me 320 USD. Have a look and let me know what you think

[FNG]

Oh geese...photos are sideways...sorry about that. I dont know if its me does the front of the helmet seem to be lifted upwards?

[FNG]

well here are some more photos, the sun came out. Posted these one on the computer so there not sideways

...well some

Quite the anomaly on the brim of that helmet. Don't think it is the angle of the photos. Maybe a manufacturing error?

Otherwise looks good.

Hard to tell. I put it up to a m35 model i have and there is a slight bend. Could be manufacture. I don't see any other pounding marks on the rim of the helmet, nothing of that nature.

[MAP]

Definitely up turned. As you note, no stress or paint scratches. Most likely as part of the manufacturing process. At least in my view.

Same here. Gives it character. Not bad for a ebay find.
