Many levers are cast & they will not bend enough for your requirement. Make sure you get some aluminum ones and heat as the others have suggested, then you can find a large assortment of covers to make them look good. Just make SURE, that once bent, you have enough travel to fully engage the brake and /or clutch if you do them both. Too much bend can limit the amount of braking you can achieve, same for the clutch which could lead to other problems such as grinding gears when you shift.
