Ding! Simple, Easy Fast and sticks to all surfaces without it coming off until you want it to. Roll of tape a few snips here and there and done. Any number anywhere.

I’ve also used car dealer price stickers. You can get them cheap on amazon, they’re very bright, and I’ve never lost them on track. Though they have peeled off while the car was on a trailer driving to VIR.
thanks

that is a new site i did not know about!

So, yes--its personal preference but folks should know the numbers aren't for the Tech Inspector, or the Grid workers--the numbers are for the corner workers and if they cant be read from 100 feet or more they are worthless no matter what material you choose. I'd also like to rant about how poorly folks modify their number by adding a 1 or other numeral to the front (or back) with tape of their regular numbers when the number is already in use by someone else. Usually its unreadable and often comes off if the weather is bad. My rant is over!
thanks

it may be a rant, but it is a good one

i simply hate the use of tape

i need to look into these car dealer numbers, never thought of that

I've been using the used car dealer numbers for about 5 years - they work really well. I've always put them on glass (a couple of e36's), so I have no idea how the adhesive will release from paint.
