Airbrush by Kolors

Custom helmets, tanks and fenders

A helmet or a tank is a small canvas that gets looked at up close, so the detail has to hold up. Ruben airbrushes helmets and bike parts one at a time, from clean graphics and lettering to flames, portraits and full scenes.

Questions

Helmets & Motorcycles: straight answers

Can I ship my helmet to you?

Yes. Ruben will tell you where to send it once the design and deposit are settled, and ships it back when it's done.

Do I need to take the tank and fenders off the bike?

Yes, parts come to Ruben removed from the bike. That's how the paint gets into every edge cleanly.

Can you match a helmet to my bike?

Yes. Send photos of both, and he'll design them to go together.
