I know there is things like the helmet,glasses,shoes and earpiece but when you ware the helmet it will look odd because there is no out fit like the body suit or anything to match with it.
SSR outfit

Once can hope this may be in the works, but we'll have to see. I think just a SWAT/Riot Control outfit in general would be a nice addition to this game.
Personally, I find it remarkable that new clothing comes in the form of NPC-wear, but perhaps that's just me. A full outfit would just exacerbate the pain.

Thats the only way we can genuinely get new clothing though, steal it from existing NPCs.
We really do need the SWAT suit, that helmet doesn't go with anything (I have never seen it with the Elite Commando suit yet but it has the gold sheen so I dont think it will quite go). It would be interesting to see if Rarebit can get the SWAT suit to fit females (if it doesn't already exist) as if that does occur, it could mean we could also see Male face Masks and lots of other similar things which are for one gender and not the other.

Not really. Area K was an entirely new concept, as far as I know. Even if it wasn't, it's not beyond the realms of reason to envisage new clothing. I would guess it's a matter of expediency as opposed to anything else.

Contact in Shirakaba has a brownish/greyish sort of area k i think.

It is an existing clothing model, just re-skinned. Same model as the Jayne Half Duster I think.
Its a testament to Rarebit's skinning though, with the Area K and the Red Winter Coat, they take an extra look to realise we have seen the models before.
I was actually going to make a thread similar to this, I'd like to see something similar to either Captain Raedars outfit(or like the commandos) or the SSR security outfits introduced.

I've been able to work out a fairly good commando type look, but when it comes to the SSR helmet, its really hard to get something to look right, especially with that colour scheme.
Also, it looks pretty cool to put on the blue headlamp while wearing the helmet.

Male Unlimit Reactors also wore an Area K, but I believe that debacle started about the same time that quest was released.
Remebering way back from the Thread of The Dead (Where Dead actually stands for Clothes) Beachhead asked about players being able to access the SWAT-type body armor, but from I can recollect, Rarebit wasn't so enthusiastic about going that path. Honestly I think the helmet in itself is something just because it wasn't long before that the Elite Commando Helmet was the first type of *helmet wear in the game, and now we have this Riot-Shield type helmet, and honestly I'm greatful for just that. I mean, when you see people in the Matrix, you don't see operatives wearing heavy-laiden body armor, you see them doing cart-wheels in leather being unscathed by a shower of high-powered bullets.

"Here, have this Key!"
"Thanks... whats it for?"
"Well... nothing, its just a Gold key..."
"Oh... ok"
The helmet, though a good addition, it completely wasted as nothing goes with it. If people want to go around naked apart from the helmet, thats their dance, but I think that is getting further away from the 'Everyone looking good in the matrix movies' thing. The only thing that is going to make this helmet look good is the SWAT (or something similar) suit.

I'm kinda hopin' this Helmet quest leads to more body armor type quests. Sure, the stereotypical redpill wears leather and flowing coats, but I bet you a shilling I could make the armored vest look bad-arse and redpilly at once. :3
