What to do with old SA-90 helmet?

I was clearing out a cupboard last week and I found my old SA-90 crash helmet. It is in great shape, but obviously useless w.r.t. racing regs.

Do I bin it, recycle it, or is there something more productive that can be done with it?

Sell it on ebay. People will buy cheap enough helmets no matter how old of non competition stuff. Be in motorcycles, go karts, or very low end motorsports with no tech.

If you belong to a local sports car club and have no interest in keeping the helmet for yourself; donate it for a year end award or something.

Our club has a helmet that is given to the "member of the year" and they sign the helmet with a sharpie, hold on to it for the year, then return it at the next year end banquet to be given to the next "member of the year". Our helmet has about 5 sigs now and looks like it's going to continue in good fashion.
