Smoke it with 50% (light) or 35% (darker) glass tinting material, it will eliminate the orange color of the reflector and matches with any colored car, especially yours

Can you please elaborate...I dont't get it...
You can use the adhesive material they use when tinting car windows. Some members here, have their tailights and headlights smoked/tinted. There are many colors, and luminosity degrees in the market. I would use the common black/gray with 50% luminosity or the 35% luminisity (that means 65% darker than before)
My car in the pic below has 20% (80% darker than before ...not really, but it's a way to make you understand the ratio) on side windows 50% on the front windshield and 35% on the rear.
Actually, the ratio 35% represents the amount of ulraviolet radiation that is left to pass through the membrane.

Great creation Nick! Makes me look like a fool for spending the money I did on real euro headlights just to eliminate the amber reflectors. hahaha
