Cosmetics are sold in packs, so I don't feel that this would affect the bottom line at all.
In fact, if this was in a pack, I would buy it.
I think it is very smart that FDev put Destiny, Halo, Lost in Space and Star Wars-esque cosmetics into the game. You mostly never see other players and when you do, it is kill on sight. Selling a range of cosmetics that don't quite fit into the Elite universe allows individuals to insert whatever theme they'd like.
That being said, there's kind of a surprising dearth of good Elite Dangerous-themed cosmetics and that is most noticeable with the head wear. The closest thing I've found is the Mechanic series of helmets, but they only come in light grey.
This could be easily fixed if we just made the flight suit helmets available for all helmets. Please, please do this.
It would also be pretty smart for you guys to just make every helmet available with a blackout and reflective visor.
