I took my headlights apart for my retrofit and I figured I would remove the amber reflector while I'm at it. Question is, do I just remove the amber reflector part and put the rest of it back, the way it is? It looks kind of funny without the reflector at all. Or maybe paint the reflector black?

Paint the reflector or cover it in black carbon fiber.

Do you have a photo of this? I was thinking of doing the same. Also any tips on getting the headlight apart?

As far as getting the headlights apart, I just preheated oven to 225 degrees, then stuck it in there for 12 minutes , used a flat head screwdriver to pry in between the housing of the headlight and the front of it to get it apart, and then just pulled the 2 apart.
