Redo in white and red with black Iris would kill.
Also make much smaller and install 2 mirrored eyeballs. Each going up and away from bottom of license plate towards the tails

Looks much better in person and not parked under a tree reflecting the tree off the glass.
If it was something more permanent maybe id break it up and colorize it into 2 or 3 layers, but for me I just cut something and tear it off in a week or two.
Making this one smaller youd have to loose the little Details to make it cuttable and mainly Weedable.
As far as mirroring and crossing them I think it would look a little goofy as crossed eyes?
Not sure I like that idea.
Maybe i'm not visualizing what you mean correctly.
Anyways it's only a Temporary thing.

Maybe a couple of eyes entertwining and coming together like the old "MOON EQUIPPED" eyes. However, I really like the one you did but with a little more contrast as FoxHat suggested. Or just like you have it only coming out of the top a wizard's head on the right side of the glass.

If the second bend in the "tail " of the eye innards curved around the dip in the rear door below the plate you could increase the size some and the eye would be about a 6 to 8 inch circle.

I saw a great looking car yesterday and caught a picture
Also finished up the top-to-bottom dynamat sound proofing wrap this week. I used nearly 200 sq ft of product to get her done right, its amazing how solid the car feels now.

I like the theme, I like the performance.
Colour? Well, it seems to me - white or silver would be more contrasting. But purple - too beautiful.
Really great idea

After putting on a new left side marker light, cleaning the MAF sensor to clear the check engine light and "emmissions workshop" light, disconnecting the battery to "dumb down" the computer from all the learning of her driving style to regain some "pep", fixing the right headlight and giving a good cleaning.......all to my wife's Passat, I turned to my HHR Tyco and also disconnected the battery to "dumb down" the computer and removed the A pillars to paint black.
Tomorrow I will paint the B pillars and give a good going over with some Lucas Speed Wax.
