Thanks to a former Wanganui Aero Work topdressing pilot, I now have a bonedome of my own:

However, over the years it seems to have suffered. I'd like to return it to something of its former glory, so I seek a visor (or just visor cover), as well as inoperable boom mike. This is strictly for display, I have NO CURRENT INTENTION of flying with this kit.

Please drop me a line or post if you have anything of interest, or know where I may get spares.... ???

Watch Evil Bay for the bits to finish your helmet...

These two Yahoo Groups may be able to help. I think Flying Clothing was a bit more helpful for me when I was looking for info on some helmets that I had.

There used to be an outfit in Dallas, TX [can't remember the name right now though] that not only sold custom made helmets, but also did overhauling and maintenance.

I'll try to find the name for you.
