The red bulbs in the rear might be OK and might pass inspection (if you have an inspection in your state) as some new cars have the All-Chrome look in their taillights (Nissan Mirano comes to mind) and they blink whatever color bulb is placed inside. To find out for sure, check with your local inspection station.

As far as taking the amber reflector out of the front headlights ....it's ILLEGAL to do so without replacing an amber reflector somewhere else on the font of the car that can be seen from the side. ALL cars and trucks must have an amber reflector in front and red reflector in the rear that will reflect side-coming headlights at night. Look at any car or truck on the road and somewhere in the front and back will be a reflector either by itself or built into the headlight or taillight. Look on the picture you posted and you can see the red reflector built into the lens itself.
