Aston Martin Bits sell them - at least they do for the previous V8 Vantage, not sure what car you have.

Also unless you desperately need them its worth pulling the fuse on the headlight washers, it stops them deploying when washing the windscreen, for some this would be an MOT fail so just pop the fuse back in at MOT time.

I have replaced the near side washer cover twice on my 06 V8V. First attempt was with the headlight in situ, not easy as you have to pull the washer forward on it's spring and clip the washer cover on to the part you are trying to hold. This never looked right and I eventually figured out a small piece of plastic had broken inside the washer mechanism. I took the headlight out, fairly easy but be careful you don't scratch the paint or the lens. Once out it is straightforward to fit. Aligning the headlight is tricky depending on how patient you are.
