Jackie J 1 Posted December 18, 2008 I Can't find Black..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KageDesign 3 Posted December 19, 2008 I Can't find Black..? Well I wonder WTH happened, it was on there when I posted the link last night. They could have run out of it in their inventory. You could try calling them and finding out if they still carry it. I dont know, Im confused though I just clicked the "Click For Details tab they have on that page I posted, and it lists black in the color choices in there, but still no longer have a bubble to select black to order Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ubuntu 0 Posted December 26, 2008 Before you stick anything onto a firefighters helmet that is in service you need to make sure that sticker material complies with NFPA 1971-2000. If the helmet catches fire you'll be in jail, sued, or both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
