Using vinyl wrap to cover, say, a lacrosse helmet? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I play lacrosse, and we're making an indoor team this winter. Helmet color doesn't matter, so I want to change it up a bit(they have to be black in the regular season), and I thought some of that sparkly ass vinyl wrap would be pretty cool. I'm just worried that it won't stay very well.

Here's the helmet I have:

It's relatively smooth, do you think that if I just heated the vinyl up real good with a heat gun, that it'd stay on?

you could probably pull off some accents like the blue on that one.. as far as wrapping the whole helmet, good luck.. you would have to do it in small pieces since there are alot of curves.

Put an I'M KILLING IT sticker on it.

Yeah, I'll do that.

I'm not doing to be mad jdm drifterz style yo, I'm doing it because it'll stand out on the field, and be ridiculous. Which works well, cause I'm a ridiculous asshole to everyone when I play.

Thanks for the help, though.
