I have a dark grey sliding hatch from ePlastics.  They used to offer a sample 
kit (and may still offer it) of four or five pieces for a nominal fee to help 
you pick the color.  FWIW, my first hatch cover broke when someone was standing 
on it to furl the main.  The local window shop that cut the replacement (I had 
enough leftover plexi for a second one) said that lexan is much stronger if it 
happens again.

I replaced my companion way sliding hatch earlier this year. I used acrylic and 
its been great so far. Below is a link to where I got it. They were very good 
to work with. I simply made a template on large brown paper and they cut it for 
me. They even sent me the leftover scraps and I used them to redo my 2 small 
hatches in the head and galley. I went with dark smoked bronze.

Sadly the panels are only ~20-25% efficient, the rest is lost in heat...
