Default Roof Tear

Hi guys

I have a tear in my roof at the usual place above driver's right shoulder. It is about 1.5-2 inches long and has been on the roof for a long time. I've done a search and found a lot of suggestions regarding patches and in particular Tear Aid or Stormsure Tuff Tape patches.

My question is these patches look to be clear in colour. I would prefer to be able to patch up with a dark/vinyl coloured patch to keep in with the look of the hood.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks

I think the idea is that you patch from the inside and use that to support the neat repair on the outside isn't it ?

Bit like this vid but with a patch and glue rather than just glue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dozd_sDlbtc

Yeah as above, the patch/tape is just used to hold it together from the inside, the stormsure glue itself is clear and works awesomely!
