Default 68 GTO convertible sunvisor color?

I have to replace my sunvisors.. they are currently black... but I was told that they should match the interior... Tthe seats, doors, etc is Pearl (GM parchment). Carpet and kick plates are black. Top is white... not sure its original.

Also, mine have vanity mirrors on both driver and passenger sides... is that normal or an upgrade?

Sunvisors should be black to match the dash.

I also have factory pearl interior 68 convertible. The sunvisors, dash, carpet, kick panels and console are black. I have vanity mirror on the passenger side only (which is listed as an option on the dealer invoice). Not sure, but I think the driver's side vanity was an option as well.

Thanks! That's the conclusion that I also thought... Black. I'm in my 8 year of restoration! Getting closer!

I'm going to try to repair... the outer binding/edging has come off.. and the local car interior guy said his machine can't handle the thickness to resew the edging. I was going to try Automotive Goop and use paper binding clips to hold in place while the Goop sets. If not... purchase new ones!
