Looks like magnolia is a beige color, which works.
Looking for original solid version versus the Cobra style as the top is cut for OEM visors.
Will need to modify top for Cobra version.

Jeff, this is a pair I have in "Beige".

They have some sorge markings because they came off the shelf some minutes before.

One has small redish or brown markings.

What do you mean by OEM, the 60s and period perspex visors or the AC Autokraft padded safety version shown below ?

I’m bemused by the lengthy thread here. These sun visors are something that can easily be replicated by any professional car trimmer. Most of us have removed them as many feel they are not in keeping with the Cobra look. Personally, I think sunglasses and a baseball cap, works much better.

Hmm, if you can wear sunglasses and a baseball cap in a Cobra then you must be driving too slowly......

In Germany you wouldn't get a road registration without sun visors.

Jeff will get my spare set of sun visors. I will send nore detailled pics as soon as I'm back from vacation next week. Then this long thread will come to an end.
I completely understand everybody trying to collect the original parts to complete the car to original specs if needed.
