There are a few non-pop up headlights kits out now, but C6-style lights will require quite a bit of body modification to the C5. I kinda of like the look of C5R headlights on most colors...
Check out this fourm vendor...

[QUOTE=Matt69-ZO6]I wondered how long this would take!

They have C5 body conversion kits for the C4. How about a C6 kit for the C5.
Unfortunately, I bet it won't be long and will probably be a big seller.

Dont get me wrong here..... I love the flip up lights, its a classic which few cars dont have these days. The sleekness of paint without seeing bulbs is a what makes the car sweet. Im not evenm sure if I like the C6 headlights (being painted and all). I was born and bred with a 64' Roadster 365hp 4spd, I have always loved the pop up lights, well not always with the old vacuum style.
And as for the C5R lights, ughhhhhhhhhhhh !!! Looks like a cheapo civic look..... pssshhhh

Without at least replacing the fenders and maybe the hood, the C6 headlights will be a tough fit. Like mentioned above, there are a number of vendors that have fixed headlight conversion kits already on the market and they look pretty nice.
