The Masuri is stitched on isn't it? Can't you just unpick the stitching, would imagine that it would leave hundreds of tiny holes in the back though lol.

If you do something because you're bored then you'll probably regret it!

Best way is to take it to someone who does refurbs on upholstery, can even take in the cloth you wish to use. It is an easy job for them to do.
Bloke at our place has done a couple who is an upholstererererererererer.

why dont you just get a permanent marker the same color as the helmet and color the badge...it should blend in well with the helmet color that way you dont have to worry abt holes etc...much quicker, less work.

Rip off the cloth lining like I did (and then spray paint!) ;)

Proper retro look!
