I agree with all this, I don't understand why people want to highlight their license plates, it's not like the license plate is attractive. I can see wanting to change to a more white color, but not so bright. A lower power LED or blue halogen would be less obtrusive. If there's a flood of light on the ground behind the car, then there's more light then needed. Now brighter backup lights, that would be a useful mod I'd be interested in.
