I had the helmet from the LEGO Editions set 43024 Ayrton Senna Helmet on hand and I thought I absolutely had to try the modification that could make it more believable.
So I ordered the set of stickers that you can currently find all over the internet via sponsored posts by the seller and after spending €12,80 including shipping and waiting a good two weeks, I finally received the small sheet of stickers which allows you to modify both the large helmet and that of the minifig.
Upon unpacking, I was a little disappointed: the actual product (right below) doesn't live up to the photo used (left below) by the retailer to promote these stickers. The resolution is rather low, the colors are dull, and the promised precise cut to align perfectly with the white piece is barely adequate. You can also feel the ink texture when you run your finger over the Marlboro logo; it's nothing like the official stickers.
However, there is one good idea: the stickers are printed on a transparent background, which avoids any color variations with the white piece. On the other hand, this transparent background is rather thin and easily distorts during application.
I still applied the two stickers to the large helmet just to see how it looked. The result seems quite acceptable from a distance, despite the poor technical quality of the stickers. Was it really necessary to spend €12,80 on them? For this test, probably yes, but if I were to do it for a personal helmet, I'm not so sure. Or perhaps I would look for a higher-quality solution than the one I chose based on the promotional image provided.
If you absolutely want to find this sheet online, simply do a Google Lens search on the scan below, you will easily find the seller of these somewhat expensive stickers.
