Default Car Show Sign?

Where does one get a car show sign? Online? What about layout and design?

i made mine on the computer. listed all the info on car-hp-msd--trans specs ,,,rear end ect--then took it to kinkos-they transfered the info i printed onto a larger --''bordered'' theme paper(i used stars and stripe bordered paper and i gave them the dimentions i wanted the final board) then they put it to a foam corrageted plastic backing-,, with a lamented plastic face,,,,i think it cost me $40.00--a friend made me a oak frame for the poster board to sit inside--here's a photo from vette fest showing the sign on a trypod--also there are vendors at shows such as vette fest that make these for you using different angles of photos of your car ,there real nice,but be prepared to shell out some dollars for they want 250-350 for there service--
