Default Decent vinyl numbers for DE?

I just got some car numbers from club registration site. Total junk, and not reusable. Had some nice numbers before (thick and reusable) but can't recall where I purchased. Any vendor suggestions? Many thanks,.........Getgone

I got mine from AutocrossNumbers.com . They lasted 12 track days so far and were pretty cheap. My son used his for 10 auto x events and 10 track days, still going strong! I always put them on the window so that the surface can be super clean. Hope this helps.

Izoomgraphics.com. Thick and reusable.

I like the vinyl one-time use type. Check for a local sign shop and/or a silkscreen shop (t-shirts). They typically can cut vinyl graphics. That way you can get the exact font, color and size you desire.

Thanks to all for the quick reply. This site is the best. JC2GT3, Izoom looks like it will fit the bill. Assume they are thick enough to simply peel off the car and re-apply to the original contact paper for later use? That's what I did with my old numbers.

We can do them, but I generally recommend just buying one-time use numbers. They're cheap enough, particularly in the grand scheme of things.

Yes, that's exactly what I do. You can reuse them quite a few times if you keep them clean. They do a very nice job.

good thread, I've been wondering about this. My last attempt at having them made at Kinko's didn't turn out well.

I ordered from iZoom at 7:30 last night and I got a shipping notification at 9:30pm, now that is fast turnaround. I'll report back once I get them. Thanks for the info.

Don't- under any circumstances- order from autocrossnumbers.com. Mediocre quality, zero communication (unreturned calls and email). Took a week and a half to get mine, and that was after regular inquiry. Oh- did I mention- they sent the wrong numbers. Still trying to get that sorted out. Judging by past threads, this guy is far from dependable.
