Need part number for Black two tone roof antenna

We got a White Overland and we wanted to get the two tone look but didn't have that option when searching for a vehicle. So now my plan is to use DynoBlack PPF to get the black roof look. I think everything is going to work out but I need to find a new sharkfin antenna that is black. Finding the part number for this seems impossible using the online parts diagrams that have no description or colors. So my question is does anyone know the part number for a black shark fin antenna from jeep? I assume all the models have the same part number but the Summit/SR have the black one.

If no one knows the part number maybe someone knows of a decent site with pictures or real descriptions that I could use to figure it out myself.

I am doing the same thing to the wife's white L. The funny thing is, I can swear that the antenna is Black already.....but the Jeep website shows it being body color-white...There are only 3 different antennas listed, with a ton being dis-continued already. It may be a paint as needed part...

Just looked at some GCL's on ebay. Overlands and up have body color antennas , and limited and below have a black molded-in-color antenna. Jeep website shows just the Laredo with the black MIC antenna, and everything else in body color....

hmm what do you mean by 'molded-in-color antenna'? Are you saying it just doesn't appear to be painted at all? Looking at some photo's that's kinda what I think i saw.

I think I found 2 part numbers that are not discontinued. No clue what the differences are, maybe just buy the more expensive and figure it's probably the one i want.
7EC80GW7AA - $107
7EC80NRVAA - $110

Your comment about it being paint to order might be accurate also, just no clue at this point. After doing all the research and talking with my ppf installer I might skip this modification just because it's getting quite expensive(~$2200 is my guess). But the black roof defiantly will look cool on our overland.

Molded in color means that it is black all the way through. Painted versions have a primer underneath and then the plastic color underneath the primer...Molded in color also will not be smooth to the touch. It is the same as the wheel arches on the Limiteds and below ....Kinda has a texture to it....

Were you quoted $2200 to do the roof? My wife is supposed to have the truck looked at today for an estimate. I was rough quoted $1200 over the phone, but they did want to see the truck. I have to admit, I tried to do this myself with some vinyl and it is definitely a skill that I dont have . It came out so-so, but I just wanted to let the wife see how it looked and if she liked it before I had t professionally done...

So a roof is normally $1200 ish from my installer also but you also have to included the A pillars on each side and above the doors. These 2 pieces will probably be ~$500 each because it's a huge piece of PPF. I'll also note my installer is not cheap by any means and I live in a high cost of living part of the country. But they do all my ppf/ceramic/tint work for me and always go over the top to make sure things are quality. I'm also not using a vinyl wrap, i'm going with a black paint protection film which might also add to the cost a little.
