Default Is This legal?

I usually take a walk, either late in the afternoon or early evening and have noted of late a late model BMW (don’t know the model) and a late model Chrysler 300C having amber running lights (parking lights) on the front. Possibly the same spec as the US models. I thought it was illegal in OZ to have anything but white light at the front. Many years ago I had a 71 HQ two door which had the blinker and parker light (white) in the front bumper, 72 or73 the parker light went into the headlight and the blinker lens became amber. I among many used to put the later model lens in the early model blinker housing and have amber running lights at night, looked cool but the boys in blue threatened to defect if I didn’t rectify the lights back to normal.
Last night after my latest walk (all right I’m getting old) I looked closely and could not see a vehicle like the BMW or the Hemi as noted above, any thoughts?
