First GD post!!!
I hope I may move up from my usual posts in the lounge for this. I have it in my mind to put on my car magnetic numbers representing our soldiers that have died in Iraq.

Unfortunately, that number seems to change much too often.

I've searched but can't seem to locate a source for magnetic numbers about 3-5 inches tall. Anybody?

1. Congrats!
You can buy magnetic sheets. Cover the sticky part of the magnetic sheet with a colorful plastic. Cut them into numbers. It might be tricky, might be time-consuming.

I don't know where you can buy the magnetic sheets. I've only seen them in business card sizes.

Good idea. :thumbsup:

If that doesn't work, you can use white shoe polish and write it on your car rear window or on the side of your car in BIG numbers.

3. 'Adhes a Mag' sheets are great.
A 1' x 2' sheet costa about $8 bucks at a hobby store. You attach your own #'s and lettering to them, cut tham apart and voila!
