Default Amber Reflector Delete?

Heres a doctored & original picture.
My argument for reflectors are increased visibility at night if I'm parked and they match my Brembos.
Arguments against: looks f'n mean without them.

You'll fail inspection without them.

Why would you fail inspection? Aftermarket bumpers don't have them...

Amber front corner reflectors are required for all road legal vehicles by DOT.

You just need to hope that when inspection comes up, you don't find a ball buster. Same reason that clear corners are technically illegal.

**** it. Black em out man, it's all about looks.

Inspection is only every few years or whatever.

You have to look at those lights every day.

I've seen those, but I have an 06+ style reflector & I haven't seen much besides clear signals. I like the tinted idea, but I'm really thinking about taking the Z to the bodyshop to make it look like the picture at the top. Either that or order a blacked out one from clearcorners.com with LEDs.
