Another view of home made ones using magnetic sign material from a sign shop. $12 for more than enough material to make 3 sets like this. They have stronger magnetic material than stationery shops, these have stayed on securely at 130+ MPH with no taping required.

Make sure your car and the signs are clean before applying! Slightest dust + vibration = scratches.

I bought the rolls of magnetic strip from Michael's, printed out an enlarged numbers on my computer, and use the printed numbers as templates. I think the roll of magnetic material cost about $10 each (I forgot if I used 1 or 2 rolls).

I am surprised no one posted Performance Products..
I just opened my new catalog and a few pages in, boom, there they were.
I think like $60.00 or something.

I might just buy some to drive around town... people will get out of my way
because it will appear that I am involved in some sort of race...
Whatever..
just joking.
