I get mine on eBay. What levers are they for?
Loads of different ones so you might have to buy a couple before you find a set that fits well / or modify them slightly.

Here an example of a generic non-aero hood I fitted recently. Bought from BankRupt Bikes on eBay for £6.99 posted. I had to cut the underneath to allow for lever movement. I would recommend sticking to Dia-Compe/Cane Creek as the quality is much higher.
