You can build the most awesome thing in the world but at some point, an 80yr old man in a crx is probably going kick your butt on the track... don't ask me how I know.

I have one of those Dymo machines and it came with a few rolls of the Ali tape, that does a fair job of switch labels and they are easily trimmed up plus of course self adhesive.

yeah i have a dymo and a ptouch and i cant seem to get the labels to stick very well. I was looking for white on clear or black tape for them but they want $20 for a cartridge. I may do some thing more like this once i go from the abs to carbon dash.

Besides the trophy shops, check with a local HAM or CB radio club. They usually know someone that does name tags, plaques, etc. Here are some examples from a local guy here. http://www.hamcrazy.com

These guys make really high quality cost effective sticker sets. Just search for "dash". http://www.isaydingdong.co.uk. And when you're on their website also search "scrotum" to see one of JD's favorite stickers.
