Adam,
Just a suggestion. As you have panels, why don't you try and turn that to
your advantage? I would experiment with deliberately leaving perceptible
gaps between the panels for a more abstract/funkier look, rather like a
jigsaw. Otherwise my preference would be to get it printed i just one, or
at the most, two panels.

For the last group show I took part in, I printed a large panorama of a
portion of the Forbidden City in Beijing, which finally measured
approximately 11.5feet by 2 feet - it was in two panels just for ease of
transport. I printed it on canvas and stretched it on a light wooden frame,
just to keep it lightweight. Worked very well - you can see it here in the
righ side foreground - if you expand the thumbnail to the full size, you
can see it clearly:
