Your original question was about the default faces, but now you seem to say that you have the faces customized, and the results of those customizations are somehow unsatisfactory. Can you tell more details, or give a couple of examples where the two versions don't behave as you'd like them to? Basically, using identical face customizations should "just work", both in the GUI version and in the text terminal version, except that the latter has fewer colors to play with, so it will do its bets to map colors to those it can use. Also, the text terminal version cannot use fonts of different sizes.
