Decal Tape/Stripes

Here is my problem. Every time I go to wash my car, some of the stripes along the Ground Effects comes off. It makes my car look really bad. I was wondering if anyone knew a place that sells the exact decals. I will show you what I mean.
If you look by the bottom middle of the door you will see it coming off.
If at all possible I would like to restripe the whole thing.
thanks

One other thing. What is the best way to take them off? I have been using a Blow drier, razor blade and wd-40 and goo gone. I Would like to get bigger pieces of it off at one time. It also leaves like a checkered mark behind it and I would like to get that off. Should I just keep rubbing the wd-40 until it comes off?

I wouldn't use a razor, get a hard plactic scraper. Once you get it started pull slowlly and keep it warm. it will come off. The checkered remains might be (if there darker) your orig. paint color where it was covered and not faded. The go gone stuff works great.
I did all of mine this way.
