Garage Drop Ceiling

This is kind of like the "Endless hallways" ceiling discussion thread.

I have built a drop ceiling frame (see link) and now pondering on how to cover it.

I have a roll of 20"x100" Black Plastic (easier to store but I bet it sags), I have a black 10x20ft EZ Pop Up Canopy Top Replacement (it's complicated), but also have my eye on Home Depot 10-Pack 4'x8' Corrugated Plastic Sheet for $140 (less sag but takes more storage space and have to paint it because the other colors are 2 times more expensive.).

Any one have any experience with the Home Depot Corrugated Plastic Sheets or have any other ideas?

I expect Kindo to recommend foam, bfjou812 to "make" me buy a new tool, and J-Man to suggest something that involves an oscilloscope :)

Geez man, try to help a guy out and make his life a little easier.................
The only thing that I can think of would be to wrap some fishing line in a zig zag pattern from front to back for some support and lay the sheeting on top of that? The only other idea I had was use some thin plywood or as already suggested tension the sheeting. I do think the idea of the panels is a good one but sounds expensive. I'll be looking forward to see the finished product.
