I’ve just bought a new helmet and I love the design but there’s two pieces on the front that I think would look better in black.

Does anyone know the best way to change the colour whilst making it look oem?

If they’re removable see if they are available as spare parts and available in black from a different design helmet of the same model. If not go to someone that does airbrushing in your area and get them sprayed black.

Indelible, black marker pen. At least it, probably, won't melt the base material. Or... contact the manufacturer.

As above, use a marker pen to start with to test then if you like it find out which paints can be used.
