NegativeEleven Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 Am I wrong in assuming the snout detail is exactly like a biker scout? All the reference pics I have seen look like it. Got my SkyGunBros helmet last week, and his snout detail is missing the top half of the backplate and both the Yamaha engine and sink aerator are thinner than a biker scout (don't project out as far from the backplate, width is fine). Should I hit up DVH for a snout before I glue this one on? My biker scout helmet snout isn't glued, it has a couple of screws thru the back, but this one isn't thick enough for that. Pic is of a bad recast of SC snout, I believe. It was easier to get to than digging out my scout armor box. Quote

Most noticable is that the pattern on the aerator is different, in the CRL it is described as “Hole” pattern snout aerator. Quote
NegativeEleven Posted August 6, 2020 Author Posted August 6, 2020 The upper round part of the backplate is pretty prominent though, should I just add that to the SKB piece? Quote

Expand Looking at pictures of the SGB helmet the outer edge seems to be part of the helmet. So it looks like it is intended to just glue the lower part on. Sand down the back of lower part as much as possible. Quote
