Acrylic for lighted rail?

Can anyone give me some idea of where to find the light diffusing white acrylic strips that I see on the lighted rail poker tables?

That is the only thing I can't find or fabricate (unless someone knows how to fabricate it from clear Plexiglas from HD or Lowes?)

Any ideas?

So I did find a local sign shop and they gave me a piece of acrylic "scrap" (for free) that is 5' x 2', which should easily give me 4 strips 2 inches tall by 5 feet long, which should be enough with lots to spare in case I screw up while cutting it. I have a 200 tooth 10" table saw blade which I hope will cut it pretty clean.

Thanks for the sign shop idea.

Any advice on cutting / bending? It is flexible enough that I could almost just bend it into place without any heat, but it would probably be just enough to risk breaking it.
