I'd probably say I like this one the best so far. Option 3 and 4 from the original are second, and a wash between them.

A single big red cirlce and a smaller backup light I think would look best, or maybe two medium red circles and that backup light placed vertically would be good too.

i like the one with the reversing light inboard as well.

I like this, and voted for option 4.
 
I drilled the holes for wires for options 3 & 4. I have not drilled any screw holes yet, I am playing with the angles. I removed the chrome rings. I think that looks better.
The backup light is as bright as my camry which is not saying much. I will probably put in a couple of dual purpose lights in the bumper that will either come on with a switch or with the transmission switch as needed.
The tail and brake lights are plenty bright.
Thanks again to all who participated. I'll post up some pics when I get the bumper and tailgate done.
