Yeah im gona want the clear reflectors or remove them completely if they have no use. Hoping that the plastic part over the fender vent is removable, think it would look cleaner with out the insert.

reflectors are super easy to change it and cheap. they'll probably be like 30 bucks or something. Tomorrow is going to be awesome!

Why tomorrow, we will know in a few hrs time. Unless you mean the FRS reveal in LA. From the looks of the pics there wont be much difference in the models.

Likes like a Scion, because of the red reflector in the tail light and the amber side marker in front.

Yes they do. They also require the red side markers in the taillights. Which is why I said the scion would have the "BRZ taillights".

Red reflectors in the rear and amber reflectors in the front are a requirement in the US.

If I was driving on the highway and saw that I'd shit myself...well looks like we get red tail lights so everyone can stop crying! Fair trade? I'll take amber turn signals in exchange for red tail lights

The tail lights look to have some camo on it. FR-S most likely gets BRZ lights, which are the same as GT86 but with a red reflector on the side. So the lens will still be clear and there will still be a lot of chrome inside.
