Quick search on eBay came up with a handful.
KTeller would be my next stop since that is where I got my exhaust and it came with similar looking hangers.
Most exhaust shops will have them as well, might check locally.

EDIT:
Hangers that came with the exhaust kit:

can't find it on their site. just go there and look

I dont imagine it costing that much for them to weld on a hanger.. Go ask around at a local exhaust shop and see who gives the best deals.

weldings not an option it would damage the outside of the muffler

well the hangers are not 'made' that way as a standard item. its called a bandstay or something, i cant remember at the moment. A few mufflers come like that, i may be able to special order one from one of the companies like HKS/Buddy Club, etc its the only ones ive seen that come standard like that.

Most vehicle specific muffler have the hangers welded to the can already. That strap hanger is also going to damage the can. Think scratches and possible crimping if you overtighten it. Unless you plan on selling the muffler as a universal later, have it welded. Any half competent muffler shop can weld hangers to the stailess can without doing any damage except at the weld points, and they're on top and can't be seen anyway.
