Default Reflective decals on helmet?

Anyone put any reflective decals on their helmet for added visability? If so post some pics and or links please. Thinking about doing it to my FF helmet. Thanks

I haven't done it but anything you can do to make yourself more visible at night can't be a bad idea.

They make a wireless brake light you can mount to your helmet. The transmitter is in a new LED bulb. I can't remember the name of it.

This is mandatory in some countries. Brazil for sure.
It's a good idea in my opinion.

This would be cool on a black helmet. The decals stay black, but when light hits it
it becomes reflective white/silver.

A white helmet Is very visible
A black helmet with a thick chunk of day glo color would help,,but,,,

I bought black reflective flames and put them on my black half helmet You could only see the flames when you were right up close to the helmet but when at night the headlights hit it , it lit up like a christmas tree (well a white christmas tree lol) Was very impressive. Has to help IMHO
