There are some guys here that have posted them, but you can go in the road race section, and ask. If you google it you will find some places have deals at different times, and for different sizes.

It gets asked on a regular basis on the Autox/RR forum. No need to ask; just do a search.
There are some places that make nice numbers. I just use contact paper. Cheap, easy and I can throw them away after each track day.

I had a local sign shop create a pair of static cling number for my car. The backing is clear so all you see is the number. They said they could use any Windows Tru-Type font in any of 8 colors. The set came on a plastic covered backer that holds the sheet when not in use.
I wet the surface of the door, apply the static cling and use a piece of cardboard to squeegee out the water. They even hold up for track days.
