Sorry, I just saw your question now. I purchased them on eBay from an American seller. That was nearly three years ago and I haven't been able to find the same seller when I looked more recently. If you search for "Mazda side stripes" on eBay you should be able to find something similar. From memory mine were $40 including shipping.

Any signwriting company could laser cut them out of vinyl for you in about 2 minutes...

I had some decals done a few years ago and it was a cheap and painless experience doing so at my local signwriter..

2 thin lines, 1 thick line with the text M A Z D A inserted in the middle. It's hardly rocket science..
Measure the distance between the arches add 20mm for wraparound, and tell the guy how thick you want each of the lines..

The guy that did mine just called up a blank screen on his computer and asked "what do you want".
For me, two lines with text near one end took him less than 1 minute, and about 10 mouse clicks and 15 keystrokes and it was done..
