Nate, what you're seeing as a "black" roof is actually the transparent optional roof. It has a deep blue tint, which from the outside looks black. Looking out from the inside, you see sky but deeper in color, as the tint is similar to the tinted band across the top of most windshields. If that is not what you're looking for, I suggest getting the standard painted top, which in your case would be yellow. Then have a black film applied to it. This film is exactly the same material as the "clear bra" is made of, just black in color, so it will be very durable and will stay glossy, and washes & waxes just like paint. The "clear bra" installers in your area should be able to do it for you. One of my friends in our local Corvette club did this on his 2013 Grand Sport, and it looks fantastic!
