Default New Icon Helmet

I just bought an Icon Skull Fusion helmet off ebay for $162 and I also bought my wife an icon hooligan helmet(so I could get a new one)

was debating on what color shield to get, I like the silver, but dunno if it would look good on the helmet? I think I am probably going to get a dark smoke, but just wanted some more opinions

and for those that dont know what the helmet looks like...

try to match it with your accent pieces on the helmet (which is the silver on the vents)... plus with your windshield, it kind-of flows into the bike.

just my 2 cents - go with silver

I say dark smoke, but pretty much any smoked will do. I say this not ony for looks, but so your not blinded when the sun is out =]

only thing about dark smoke is when dusk approaches... at night, it's very hard to see with dark-smoke (I have a light gold tint and a dark blue tint - and i wear my light gold at night and my dark blue in the day)..
