OK, actually It's an old mod but haven't got a chance to take pics until recently. The main idea is to match the parking light red light & thin rod. I like this better than LED licence plate light since it match/look better at night.

Very easy DIY:
-Red transparent vinyl sticker (there are many shades of red stickers sold so it's trial & error to get the right shades of red to match the parking light red, applying the sticker twice might do the trick as well to get a deeper red)
-Matt Black vinyl sticker (to make it to look like the parking light rods).
-Cut it to size and apply it to the transparent part of the light housing.

Not sure if this is legal in States. Do it at your own risk..

Shoot, it actually looks sick. The only thing is here in the states there might be an issue. Since it sort of looks out of place in the sense that it doesnt seem stock.

Either way cheapest cool mod i bet.

It won't matter what car color you have. Your parking lights are still red.
so it should match just fine...

Maybe the color of your licence plate will have a bigger effect on the look.

I'd get pulled over really fast if i did that! I must admit though, that does look pretty good!

Looks good but I get worried enough when a cop is behind me. The last thing I need is MORE attention.

Yea, it is likely that US cop will give you ticket for illegal lights.

the license plate is awesome in black, thats the plate color in Colombia, red light works well with that plate and your car color

I'm more worried about what else he might give me a ticket for also. Tint for one.
