Painting and polishing
Here is a helmet that I am working on for myself, it is almost done, just needs a few more coats of clear, then wet sanded and buffed and it will be done.
it ALMOST matches my car color wise, its a little bit lighter though.
You can check out my other threads when i painted my interior pieces, also I polished my fuel rail and throttle body.
Here is my other work:

dude if your into this **** you should invest in a cheap paint gun and use the real stuff.... it would look like 50% deeper in the color and clear wise.. i mean for shaker can it looks damn good but if your doing all this painting why not learn to do it the right way... its really not that hard to paint especially little parts.... a full paint is a little tricky but im sure u would ge the hang of it..

i am looking to get an HVLP gun, and if enough people were interested in getting things painted I would start using good paint and clear. i achieved excellent results with just a rattle can because i understand the technique involved.
