In the case of the android head, the silver-faced one looks just fine. However
when observing it the gold-faced Explorien version, it should be noted that it
has a black face with gold features, on a Clear surface, leaving one with the
assumption that the front of the silver one is painted black as well, which
obviously wouldn't show up on a head with an already black surface.
If the two heads were to look identical (not including the gold/silver
difference), then the silver-faced android head would always have his silver
features on a black (front) surface, no matter what color the reat of the head
was.
My gold-faced one is here. http://news.lugnet.com/cad/dat/parts/?n=2479 It
gives you credit for making the silver-faced head.
Check out these links to see what I'm talking about.

including the Spyrius android. Despite appearances to the contrary, its head is
all black, with a clear helmet. I own one.)
