How to change icon position in status bar (AOSP ROM)

Hi,
Is it possible to change position of status bar icons (signal, battery etc.) by editing xml files? I'm making custom theme for personal use and next screenshoot will tell you exactly what I want:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(direct link http://i.imgur.com/yX0Gx.jpg)
I want to squeeze those icons a little bit since I've made them smaller (grey box is actual .png size so you can see wasted space in between).
I've found several theming guides but none of them explains how to manage icon position in status bar. Any advice? ROM is Oxygen (AOSP).

Nobody, really? Should I cook ROM from scratch?

where has the "interface" section in settings gone?

Hi, I just get a hold of nexus 4 today. My previous phone is a ancient samsung i9300 flashed with 4.2.2 custom rom. In the settings menu, there is a section called "Interface" where I can customize the quick settings items, the battery icon and much more. But in nexus 4 I don't see that option. I wonder if those are the features in the custom rom and not in the 4.2.2 device itself.

Can someone please tell me ? thank you!

Those are custom ROM features. Nearly all of the major custom ROMs out there have such settings implemented. (CM, PA, AOKP, etc)

Need help! Where do I gets this?

Hey guys I just downloaded DescableMe on my Nexus and it has a very nice feature, the game was full screen. And you need to drag a bit the top of the screen to show the transparent on screen buttons. Or volume key to show it with black bg. Can I have this feature to all apps and games? Thanks!!

It's immersive mode, has been introduced in kitkat and you'll have to wait for developers to add the feature.

You can, a Custom ROM like ParanoidAndroid has this option. It's called Immersive or PIE

[Q] [REQUEST] New Android L refreshed status bar!

Can somebody please make flashable modified status bar for Android L preview version with this kind of icons?
http://androidandme.com/2014/09/new...shed-status-bar-icons-and-navigation-buttons/
Yeah, I know we already have that kind of status bar somewhere on forum but if you look closely its not, this icons are little bit smaller, at different angle and smaller font on clock, its looks neat. Also the navigation bar has smaller icons..

Here is the picture of both new and old.

and for the navigation button, have you heard SoftkeyZ?
