License plate light crooked? (diode dynamics)

Am i being paranoid or does it look crookid. Like you don't notice it from a glance but when i really look at it, it doesn't look parallel to my car. I've pulled them out and placed them back in, i don't know. Sucks if my cars at fault.They're diode dynamic stage 3s. Should i return them for another?? Plus they don't seem as bright as a stage 3 should be.

First off, they are LP lights. They are meant to light up the LP, not the ground. As such thy are doing great, second the light is parallel it's ur mind playing tricks on you. Happens to all of us car people! Thirdly if the light weren't parallel it would be ur bumper that's off because its ur bumper that blocking the light pattern creating that line you see...

I don't understand why anyone would want their license plate to be more visible...

I heard that some companies make licence plate covers that sort of block out red light and speed cameras. Heard that somewhere. And somehow the plate on my bike got bent? Weird.
