2. paint silver on the bottom and paint clear green on the underside of the clear parts
3. paint silver at the back, clear green in front

Or any other options which you think will yield better-looking results? I'm never going to paste the stickers unless they are special markings and have like words on them.
Somebody on the net showed off how they used clear green on the underside of the clear parts, and pasted sparkly silver wrapping paper instead of the stickers. The result was a green orb that sparkled under the light. It was genius.
