Question 1

Can I send my own helmet to HELMIO for painting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can send a suitable helmet you already own, subject to a condition and compatibility review before work begins. HELMIO can also source a new homologated helmet for your racing class.

Question 2

Do you paint both karting and motorsport helmets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. HELMIO paints suitable karting and racing helmets from manufacturers including Arai, Bell, Stilo and Schuberth. The exact shell, size and homologation are confirmed before the quote is approved.

Question 3

How much does custom helmet painting cost?

Accepted Answer

Professional custom paintwork starts from €1,500. The final quote depends on the helmet shell, design complexity, finishes, logos, accessories and whether any design preparation is required.

Question 4

Can you paint a helmet from my sketch or reference images?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if the direction is clear enough to prepare for production. If you need a completely original identity and design concept first, HELMIO +1% is the better starting point.

Question 5

Can I approve the design before painting starts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The layout, colours, logos and important details are confirmed before production. Paintwork begins only after the agreed visual direction and quote have been approved.

Question 6

How long does a custom helmet paint job take?

Accepted Answer

Timing depends on design complexity and current production availability. HELMIO confirms the expected production window before you accept the quote, and you can follow approved milestones in the project tracker.

Question 7

Do you ship custom-painted helmets worldwide?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Finished helmets are photographed, protected for transport and sent with tracked, insured delivery. Shipping and any destination-specific costs are confirmed with the quote.
