Default New Helmet Suggestion

Looking to get a custom painted helmet, but need the helmet first. Narrowed it down to either the Biltwell, Bell Custom 500 or the Rockhard American Classic. Don't have any place near that I can compare the three. Want it to be as less "egg head" as possible. Any help would be appreciated.

I have recently ordered a Lick's brand. Click on the pics and there is a comparison of a few different helmets..

I have both Bell Custom 500 and RockHard, the Rockhard is lower profile on my head (same sizing ).. and it is now my prefered helmet.
Another strange thing, I have a bad left ear, on my Custom500 I MUST wear ear plugs or else there is a strange ear pressure thingy that just hurts my ear, not on the Rockhard.
The RockHard also offers the extra snaps (5 vs. 3 for bell) and the goggle snap in the back.
I have the Red Metal flake and the Custom 500 SpeedSould and I can tell you, they both look wicked.. but then again my taste in colors is doubtful. .
