I've got an RC airplane made out of the stuff and I'm a really bad pilot (term used loosely). It's virtually indestructable.

Depends on how you get it. Order a custom-color sheet from a store, it costs. Get used boxes/campaign signs, it doesn't.

Arf. Guess I got reamed for $38 for a 4x8' sheet at a sign shop. Gotta find a cheaper sign shop.

My local sign shop wanted a buck per square foot for special order 'plast. It seemed reasonable to me, $12 for a 6' by 2' black sheet, enough for an air dam and grill block parts.

I didn't go to a sign shop.
I went to a sign supply store.
Maybe there is a difference some way, shape, or form.
My 4' x 8' white was $11.00
My 4' x 8' black was $15.00
I looked under plastic suppliers to find the sign guys.

The girl behind the counter was a little interested the first time I went in, The second time she asked me to give her a price to streemline her Buick.
Maybe another convert?
