    Shell, liner and straps look good to me. I am a bit wary of the camo. Personally, I would pass.

      I think daylight pictures would help more on the camo paint

        Like Yannis, my first impression was original helmet but bad camo paint. I would like to see some close ups of the wear points.

          Thanks guys.
          Will make some extra photos later today, but I'm sure by now the camo isn't original to the helmet.
          The inside of the helmet still has green paint, but at the outside, under the camo is nothing. No paint.

            I concur, shell and liner are good, the camo paint is very questionable. I believe I saw this helmet 15 or so year ago at a Baltimore show and the consensus of the FJ collectors was the same.
