Put grommets in it, just like ya do to banners. For the roof rafters, use short chains, rope, etc. Attach eye hooks to rafter, put grommets in coro, use small chain that'll fit through the grommets or quick connects to attach coro to the chain.

Ditto Chris's remarks, except I usually use nylon fishing line.
Rather than large banner grommets I try and use a leather punch and eyelets.
If you haven't go one of these, just thread the nylon line thru the coro with a large needle. The corro won't tear and it gives the sign the illusion of floating below the ceiling with no visible support.
Another trick for hanging coro signs from ceilings ... drill very small holes in the ceiling panels just big enough to take a small nail. Tie the nylon line around the MIDDLE of the nail and push it right thru the hole. It will flip sideways inside the panel and will not pull out. Makes an invisible anchor.
When you take the sign down, just snip the nylon line off at the ceiling and the hole remaining will be hardly noticable.

Could you feed the line through the end flutes & use your nail idea? A small white paneling nail maybe? You could also hot glue the fish line in the top flutes if sign is not too heavy & inside.
