i had my reflectors on the front of my 02' M3 bumper painted white to eliminate the yellow (70% of bmw owners do the same). on my 00' 328ci i had the rear bumper i had the reflectors painted as well. many bmw tuner companies sell them pre-painted or clear for customers. never an issue. 99% of the police would never even pick up on it or even care. cheers!
