E-Bay will help as far as pre-painted I haven't found anyplace. I just primed and painted the stock ones flat black myself.

First put a piece of masking tape under the letters/numbers so you can mark the center points and give you a level line. I took them off with a bit of heat from a blow drier then clean the remainder off the car and the letters. Primed then painted the letters then carefully cut 3M tape to fit colored the edge (which is grey) with a black sharpie. Then back on the car using the marks made previously. Easy Peasy.
