Default ICS status bar icons are too small

The notification icons for my various apps on the left side of the status bar in the leaked ICS builds are too small and dark. I think there was an option in the AOSP ROM to increase the size but is there any way to do this in the leaked stock D4 ICS ROMs?

Here's a screenshot of what I'm referring to:

Exclamation BUMP!

I've been searching for no less than 3 hours. I find that HEAPS of people are complaining, but no-one has any answers or solutions!

Well I have an answer/solution, but not an implementation!

Samsung's Touchwiz Launcher for ICS clearly shows big bright app notification icons (don't have a screenshot to show you, you'll have to take my word for it because I used to have it until I flashed CM9 ) Now all apps show small dim icons in stock Google ICS roms (i.e. AOSP, AOKP, CM9 etc etc) so clearly it's an issue with stock Google ICS. Samsung saw this as a problem, and implemented a fix in their Touchwiz ICS launcher.

SO!

We just need a clever kid out there to either:
  1. Somehow extract only the status bar component so that those of us on stock Google roms can flash the Touchwiz status bar, or
  2. Work out the fix/hack that Samsung used/implemented in the TWLauncher that makes the app icons/notifications much brighter and bigger

So, can someone please help?! I'm sure it can be done (but then again maybe I'm being naive)...
