Short answer: No.

Long answer: The only thing similar to that are the now discontinued Eastbear headlights (which had no plastic lens cover)

Thanks but those imo just look stupid the only time you would see them is at night and even then when a light is shining in your face you cant tell what shape or design they are

I suppose I should've mentioned that you're likely only going to find the Eastbears for sale here on the forum and not really anywhere else.

And the FC2000 cost that much partially because all the lights are included too.

If you get the FC2000 kit, make shure to get the Shineautosport replica, they do some damn good work, and make rare JDM aero parts more acessible to us in the USA. Last I heard, there was a Group Buy going on for it, but I don't know if that is still open.

That's the very point of pop-ups, to hide the headlights. (aesthetically speaking)

On a more serious note you can always buy the FD ones and re-work them to fit the FC if you have some skills.

lmao, thats what it looked like when i bought it
its getting fixed...
the reason for the gay *** hood scoops (well, gayness has no real excuse) is that it was an NA car, and they put a top mount IC on it.

I don't think you would need unbelievable fiberglassing skills to make it work. Will it look nice? I have no idea.
