The problem is once you paint it it'll loose conductivity. You could wrap lines of copper or aluminium tape that are connected to the battery around a standard L plate which might work. Unfortunately, though thieves are stupid for being thieves, they are often clever enough to spot these things and they may disconnect the current from flowing and nick the plate. Though this could act as a deterrent seeming as the owner of this vehicle is mad and they may hunt the thief down.

or just scratch the surface slightly. or not paint the edges. i just liked the metal idea anyway
