It's way too clean, i don't like the look of the dome stamp or the chinstrap not the markings but the way its never been fitted properly? I think the liner rivets look a bit too dome shaped aswell, i know if i posted it up here i'd be told it was a load of crap and it was %100 fake...but what would i know.....

Forgive my ignorance but what is that thing sticking out of the air vent?

I have never seen one on a ww2 helmet only ww1 Austrian police rural helmet.
Strange to see one on a ww2 lutwaffe helmet.

That lug looks like a mount for a brow plate (stirnpanzer?). I thought they did away with these after WWI.

Entirely agree with Chris, this is the only one I have ever seen, described exactly as above. This is for sale on Bill Shea's site. Not the similarity, uncanny.
