Never seen one, they would look lame anyway. P-90's were made for P-90 sized slots.

Maybe you mean one of these? this is for dogears though...
from Lollar blog - http://blog.lollarguitars.com/technical/choosing-the-correct-size-of-lollar-p-90-dogear-pickup/
...there is also a shim that is “oversized” for use when you are installing a dogear style pickup into a guitar that has been routed for a humbucker sized pickup. It spans the extra width of the humbucker route, and adds an extra distance of 3/32” all the way around. It’s cut out of 1/32” thick material.

You mean something like this?
AFAIK, you can find what they call "goof hiders" meant for the old Deluxes with minihums. The minis and P90s are the same size, so they'd work on a P90 guitar.

I too am looking for some 'p90 pickup rings'... so far I've only seen them on an early 70's Gibson SG Pro Deluxe

PS- I would like a set for my SG200, similar vintage as the SG Pro, they must have used the same routing tools... the SG200 had single coil pickups with huge pickup cavities, no 'normal' pickup ring will cover them. I currently have humbuckers in this guitar and goof rings to hide this. Here's a pic of this guitar in 'mid' project state, and without the goof rings, http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=6638406&id=711762428&l=b17e2e7890
