What are my Headlight options?

Ive been doing some motor work on my ls1 powered FC lately. Im about to finish that up so im looking ahead to drive-ability. The intercooler piping is in the way of the factory pop up lights. Id really like to find a non pop up headlight set up that sits in the factory location. I found them for the FDs (angel eyes?) but I have not had good luck finding some for the FC. Any help/links would be very appreciated. Point me in the right direction! Thanks guys!

here is a sleek headlight made by the same people who make the fd one.

it is NON HID though.. (halogen)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/86-91...Q5fAccessories

or, you can do a retrofit in the oem popups and have better light output.

(aimed a little bit low on the right side, fixed but after picture was taken)

imho the sleek headlights don't look very good with the fc body.

re amemiya makes better looking sleek headlamps, but you can bet your *** they cost a **** ton more money.

but as for the only option in the USA, these EVO-R (brand of the headlamps) are the only sleek headlight option (that i've found)

they don't require any modifications to fit either!

good luck with whatever your decision is!
