In the front you are allowed to either have clear (stock white), yellow, or amber.
In the rear you are only allowed to have amber or red, but the red must be coming from a red lense. You can't have a red bulb behind a clear lense.
Hyperwhite is not legal.

I'm pretty sure that a clear front turn signal is illegal. Are there any cars that use a factory clear front turn signal with a clear bulb?
I'll add to EliteAccord's list, green and purple lights are illegal anywhere on the outside of a moving vehicle. Blue lights are illegal on any car other then a registered police vehicle, as are front facing red lights which are reserved for police and the fire department.
For you Canadians, I think you have to be a volunteer firefighter to have green lights, and that's only on call. At least that's what I have heard.

You're lucky you didn't get an "immitation of a police vehicle" ticket. Blue lights on a non-police car is a serious offense, they might even tow your car for it if you are not lucky.
