RAINBOW ARAI HELMET

‘A COLOURFUL ONE THAT WONT BE MISSED OUT ON TRACK’

A striking commission for driver Maria Dinu — white base with bold green, yellow, and purple pinstripe detailing running across the shell. The design carries through cleanly from the crown to the chin bar, so it reads as one continuous livery whether you’re looking front-on or from the side, which matters when a helmet’s moving fast on track.

Racing liveries like this need to work at speed and from a distance — clean lines, strong colour blocks, and a design that photographers and spectators alike can pick out from the crowd. The colours here echo classic 90s F1 sponsor liveries, but the layout’s built entirely around Maria’s own name and identity.

That blend of purpose and style is exactly why we do what we do here at X-Paint. We don’t just colour helmets, we design pieces that perform as part of the kit. That means:

• Contrast that reads from a distance so it stands out on track

• Flowing paintwork that complements racing lines

• Durable high-build lacquer that survives abuse — heat, grit, asphalt

• Clean integration of sponsor and team elements

• All built in-house, hand-finished, never templated

If you’re curious how real custom helmet art comes together, check out our helmet paint gallery right here — it’ll show you the level we’re talking about.

Since setting up at Sandown Coachworks in Camberley, we’re not just doing helmets anymore. If you’re local and need bodywork repair, a full respray, or custom paint on a bike, car, or even a bicycle, we can help with that too — worth a browse of the helmet paint page or the full site for more of what we cover.

Got a helmet, bike, or car in mind? Get in touch and let’s talk design.
