This may not be the best idea as it may effect your light projection and perhaps your intensity as well. The silver pieces are probably there for a reason.

I do not believe that the 06+ headlamps rely on the surroundings for light projections, but it definitely is a bad idea for the 03-05 as those are a mix of projector and reflector.
