Greedo

I got this Greedo mask off of a fellow 501st member dirt cheap.
I've always liked the character, so would have got it anyway, but thought it would be a nice project to paint it and replace the odd eyes that come with it for something more suitable.
Had a surprise when it arrived - its not unpainted latex as i thought, but a quite subtle airbrushing over a teal basecoat (much brigher than it appears here).
So that opens up some options:
Do i stick with this colour, or repaint brighter?
Do i replace the eyes with solid colour hemispheres and have the mask displayed on a wig stand?
Or do i do them in a transparent black, so the mask can be wearable?
And, if i do that, do i make the rest of the outfit?
