has anybody tried making theyre own jt racing style mask? from what ive read and looked for, these are hard to find. you think there is anyway to cut down a paintball mask, add some buttons to the side and strap it on? it might not look the same, but it would be unique and on the cheap. just a thought
 
I just bought a JT mask from Noel, they were no where to be found on Ebay. I have to tell ya, the look with a 3/4 helmet is even more impressive in person. I love it.

When I got mine, my first tought was I would make a fiberglass or Carbon fiber copy off this one. I am no pro at fiberglass, but I have used it before. I may try to drape a few sheets of Carbon over it and see what it may look like. I think CF would be the most badass mask.
 
I'm testing leather using a medieval french method called 'cure de boil' where leather is steamed or lightly boiled and then stretched to a form. The end result is tough and was used in armor. I have had success with the leather, and just need to complete a positive mold.
 
i was thinkin the same thing with the fiberglass. i have 0 experience with it, so that could be an issue.
 
I was looking at some paintball mask and I saw some really nice ones that would be easy to chop up and i thin k it would look killer. Although a carbon fiber mask would be badass.
