well, like i said, i did heat it up and widen it, it looks alittle more like the mystery helmet now (i think thats what its called, i dunno im a noob) anyway, i think it looks the way it does because i kinda have a giraffe neck, so i padded the vest alittle and it looks alittle better, i also added alittle more padding around the neck so it helped...and yes, the helmet has a liner. thanks for the help
