Anyone know where i can get those magnetic numbers?
you can make them yourself. print out big numbers off your printer and go to a hobby shop to buy the magnetic sheets. Then lots of time with your utility knife. Get strong magnetic sheets. the weak ones tend to fly off while driving
I bought a giant roll of black sheeting from http://www.beacongraphics.com/magnetic.html
for about 30 bucks, and i've made several sets of decals, by putting vynal decals or bumper stickers onto the black sheeting and cutting it appropriately, and i've made my own numbers, first using reflective tape, and later using the vynal spray for seat refinishing that they sell at pep-boys (plasti-kote i think it's called)....it bonds to the vynal and so won't crack or come off despite bending, heat, water etc. check our page in the mods section for some pics. The roll was enough to make 4 giant 8s (literally 2 feet tall) for D's car, 3 sets of letters and numbers for mine (76 CSP in various sizes and fonts), another set for a friend's GS-R, and all of my various other decals, etc. still have some left, but not much

I bought some of mine, and made others. http://www.ap-signworks.com does good magnet work for a good price.
Cool. Thanks Aleph. I was looking around for cheap numbers.. I'm ordering the white sheet. That way I won't need to paint it and it'll contrast great on my FBP car.
If we put an emblem or stickers on the Magnetic Sheet, and go 80-90 MPH, would we lose the sheet?(due to wind, etc) has anyone ever try this?

Get an Action Writer for ten bucks and use it to write your car number on your windows. It's the stuff that used car dealers use. Unlike shoe polish, it won't run if it starts raining. And it's easy to rub off with a dry towel (like a white board marker). One bottle will last you a long time, too.
Ahh.. I'm all ready for autox now.. I bought myself my first helmet and I made my numbers from the magnetic roll. I have a TON of material left over.
I made the easy numbers :-P numbers 1, and 0 and letters CSP.
