Can someone come up with an eloquent, easy to install and remove solution?
gaffers tape from permacel and pro gaffer

Sorry... I had to.

I actually may end up doing just that. I have a black car, and I'm not that image conscious. If I just have to tape it up when I leave the track once a month, it's not a big deal...
