    Sorry if this is in the wrong thread, but can anyone tell me where on earth can I get the good oversize banners with the metal d rings on the edges????

    20 bucks a shot for the mesh ones that don't last one trip is ridiculous.

    They don't have the ones I'm looking for. Neither does US Cargo control.

    The iowa80 has one that looks a little better. The letters are sewn on, and I think the border is sewn together. That has to be a little stronger than the EZ hook ones, or the ones without sewn edges.
    Thanks!

    What's the big deal about securing permits btw?

    I do it all of the time....it's no big deal.....
    Some states you can obtain them at the P.O.E.
    Some you can get them online or by phone....

    The most trouble I ever had getting a permit was for the city of Redding, CA...it took 3 days to get the city permit so I could leave the shipper. The load was going to Jax, FL...I had all the other permits by the time I had it loaded and tarped (6 hours)...it was a big CNC milling machine...L shaped no less, had to be wrapped like a christmas present.
