i hope you don't mind telling me but how exactly did you make it? the only thing I can think of is you bent the mesh around the original visor and attached it to the fiberglass pull you made

i made a hard cast of the visor and shaped the mesh in to that it was all done on a day so no big probs there

I never thought about using mesh before, everyone else making zer0 helmets are using tinted PETG. Good job man
