I dunno if that was clipart, it looks airbrushed. I am sure you could find similar, but that looks like an airbrushed fireman shirt like you would see at their fund raisers or parades.

No, too many soft color transitions. This requires using complex blends and in doing so you need to know the starting (inner) shape for the blend to match and this is not obvious. The subtle shading, highlights and shadows would require alot of trial and error = expensive and time consuming and still may not match exactly.

As for live trace, that won't work as there are too many printing/halftone style dots that live trace will pick up and make into vector shapes resulting in hundreds of shapes and nodes to clean up.
 
No this is not airbrushed, i have the actual decal in my hands, but i need to reproduce so i can make more.

I don´t need to trace the halftone text, only the helmet part, i don´t need it to match exactly.

Man i´m in a deep hole.

What would you guys do?

i understand you have the decal, that does not mean the original artwork was not airbrushed, scanned, printed, and then contour cut.
