Default FULLY painted helmets?

I was in VA Beach today and saw a guy that had his whole helmet (including visor) painted/sreen printed/what ever the hell it was. He had a skull that was pretty much a perfect replica of a real skull with the visor down because it included eye sockets, nostrils, mouth... Kinda weird explaining it and only got like a 3 sec glimpse but have any of you all seen similar lids and is a custom thing or can they be ordered like that?

I know of a few places in Nova that do it, not sure about the 757 though.

My friend has a helmet with the visor painted. The first time I saw it I was like wtf? He has the Jamaica flag like the one in my avatar painted across the visor. What he did was to paint a mesh with the colors and put it over the visor, so he can see through it fine, but looking on it, you can never tell. He got ticketed for it once by a cop thinking that he cant see through it, but he took it to court and the ticket got dropped.

EDIT: Looking on that website, I think they use the mesh to paint on over the visor as well.

Yeah, the mesh is what most places use. I've been pondering on getting an Optimus Prime helmet, I just have to decide which helmet to use.

Seen it in person, very nice not to mention the Quantum II is one excellent lid in itself.
