It just depend on what things you are planning on doing to the car. If you keep the windshield tape on Id leave it black, looks much more aggressive. Seems that you got the Cr look going on as well. Black!

Black looks better especially on OEM tops. The black top gives the car a lower profile look which is even more important in the OEM look case since it is more bubbly and round than the MUGEN top.

Do black. It looks great.

This. If I had the extra $, mine would be color matched. However, if you're not planning on keeping the top reselling it would be easier if you kept it BB. IMO, color matched and windshield tape removed looks much better.

Color match for sure... looks so much cleaner... otherwise it just looks like you have a softtop still...

Same color match looks great but resale value is greater.

I would stick with black, not because I am biased. I think you will save money and if you ever decide to sell the hardtop. You would have a larger group of buyers versus a yellow hardtop.

keep it black. Some colors look good color matched (white, blues, and reds)... but black top on a yellow looks good.

just whatever you do, DON'T get a Mugen styled hardtop and paint it completely yellow.
