So, I want to dress up my car with some blank "gumball" number circles on the doors. I have seen this a few times at auto-crosses, but I'm having a hard time finding a vendor.
NMNA, Picture for reference: 
If possible, I would also like to have them in beige... long shot I know. 
Find a place near you that does vinyl and ask for 2 large circles in the color of your choice?
You must have not looked very hard. Almost any racing supplier that sells vinyl numbers will also offer vinyl circles. This took me less than 2 minutes to find.

That's what I did. Found a vinyl guy on a local forum and told him I wanted two circles a certain diameter.
How are you then adding numbers? Black magnet on the vinyl?
Permanente black vinyl on the white vinyl?
How do you deal with the need to change numbers?
In reply to JohnRW1621:
At first I had vinyl permanent numbers on the meatballs. I started having a co-driver more often so took them off and just use black magnetic numbers over the meatball.
I got mine from a guy that did vinyl I met through autocrossing. Been on the car for 8 or 9 years now.
All you need is the vinyl. Walk into your local sign shop and tell them you want two squares of the vinyl in your preferred color. Use the same tools you used in primary school to cut a circle, such as a piece of string, a knife and a pin. Or have them cut it if you want using a $2000 plotter.
Alternately, if you want magnetic, buy a sheet of magnetic material and cut a circle. I've got a roll that I use for all sorts of things. You'll get a lot more magnet than you need, but you can sell them to other guys in your club and you'll be surprised how often a roll of magnetic sheet is useful

+1 for the magnetic sheeting. You can get loads of it from McMaster-Carr cheap. And if you get the sheeting with the white facing, here's a tip for you: They are compatible with dry erase markers. Makes for a handy to-do list, or scratchpad that you can stick to the side of the car while you're working on it.
I use a chunk of it attached to a steel cabinet as a dry erase board.
I got mine from Signsupply.com, iirc. Also makes a good gasket for steel French doors that have an indifferent gasket between them.
Here you go: Track Decals meatballs
I always liked Squier Design, easy and economical.
