'88 AE Windshield sunshade color is bronze, is rest the same?

As the title says...

1. Is the only difference the sunshade color, or is the rest also different (even if slightly)?

2. Would an AE windshield look out of place on a 'regular' RX-7 with the rest of the windows non AE, but tinted?

Looking for an accurate answer on (1) and your opinions on (2).

Thank you.

Yep, Hozz is right... all 10thAE and Infini III and IV windows (not just the windshield) have a bronze tint to them.

It is pretty noticeable when comparing the regular blue tint windows to the Bronze tint.

So the whole windshield is bronze, with a more opaque bronze for the sunshade near the top of the windshield? Or just the sunshade?

If it's just the sunshade, it would look alright. If the whole windshield has any degree of bronze all over, it would probably not look that great (since the other windows wouldn't match).
