When you get the mirrored visor figured out, please let us know. I made Cobra Vipers last summer, and just used the face shield from Harbor Freight with mirrored privacy tint from Home Depot. Not a dome, just a smooth curve and the helmet is almost like a Fett with bigger T-shape, so it held it curved like that. A friend wants to replace his hooded Cobra Commander with a helmet, and I said I'd build it, but that one (the cartoon version) definitely needs to be domed. I'm wondering if a little heat and vacuum could stretch the mirror tint over a vac-formed clear visor.
