There are quite a few places that specialise in knocking out decals for bikes, some do them on order or have them in stock. You will find them on the net. They will be cheaper that the OEM part, but sometimes they may vary in colour quality. No big deal if its not side by side an original piece.
Although I have seen many bikes where the decals have faded differently anyway.

You could try Replicals.com they claim that their decals will out last the factory decals because they are printed on the highest quality and most expensive 3M vinyl and laminated with a heavy duty 3M 4mil laminate. And there prices are still cheaper than buying the OEM decals from your local dealer.

I know we have the site sponsor, who I'm sure is excellent...
From my experience I can only comment on Replical. I needed both side fairings wings and logos. The OEM stuff cost too much, because it was many part numbers. So I went to replicals and brought the full set. It is tricky to put on, but if you take your time it turns out great.
I can't comment on if they'll last longer than stock - but I can tell you, my bike went from looking like a tired race bike (it is) to a nearly new machine. That would have been the case I suppose with any decal set.
Funnily enough - no F3 specific decals are on their website... downer.
One more vote for the site sponsor!

You can google search Honda OEM parts places that have the honda factory schematics online and pick the graphics that you need according to the schematics. here is one place that i found just to show you what i'm talking about.
