I think this is custom made.

Site says it can reduce visibility up to 5% and not recommended in rain or snow.

They have a solid yellow one pretty cheap, I bet you could make it look just like the picture with a black sharpie.

That site is pretty cool, you can download a template and make your own custom design.

I think i might get this made, what do you think?

If it ends up looking dumb it is only $16 and it peels off.

those were all pretty cool. But my helmet already has a design so it wouldn't make sense for me to get one. :embarrassed: I'd like those visor skins though.

I would think it distracting. Is it?

Visibility is really not hurt that much, I haven't had a chance to ride since I got it but maybe tomorrow.

It isn't quite the same as looking through window tint but it is similar, it is kind of like looking through a window screen.

From the inside you can't see any difference due to the white text vs. black background; it all looks the same.

I'll give a better visibility review after I ride with it for a few days.
