Depending on the state, amber bulbs are the only bulbs you can have. If the amber color of your bulb when it is off is what's bothering you, there are crome/cear looking bulbs that blink amber so you would be legal.I myself am not a fan of clear corners/different color bulbs, but to each their own.....

I think anything other than yellow/amber is illegal, but you can spray paint them silver and they will still glow yellow.

Edit: Ah, beaten to the punch.

Blue always looks good in a clear headlight lens, if you can get away with it of course.
I just use amber bulbs now because cops in cali have a fetish for giving out fix it tickets here or something.

Or if the headlights are on...sounds like that's the problem that the original poster is trying to resolve.

If amber bothers you that much, then just put in the white/blue bulbs if you don't care about cops bothering you. I think amber bulbs look just fine with HIDs
