Amber reflector removal tickets?

so im getting my headlights done today. going with iron mans and a black housing. still unsure about the amber reflector in our housings. im not sure if i should leave it, or paint it black too. i know its illegal to NOT have an amber reflector, but is this really enforced? i havent heard anyone being ticketed for it, but then again a lot of us have illegal tints and we still do it
quick responses would be ideal, since im going in 2 hours to get the work done. sorry for the lack of time, just a last minute thing that came to mind.
i like the look of blacking out the reflectors but if anyone has had any trouble with cops ticketed or even impounding vehicles without the amber reflector please let me know!!

Paint it black! Removing it will reveal some ugly holes on the housing

i took out my amber, no issues thus far. I dont think its a legal requirement (in such a way that u can get ticketed for)

however it will result in some holes....although i left the holes...the smaller holes were able to be covered with small chrome bits, its really not that bad though leaving the bigger ones open.

but if you're going to do a black housing......then just paint the reflector black......but to put ur mind at ease......ull be fine
