I am embarassed to say that I just left them. Cleaned the roof off really well, and just put the tape down. It doesn't look wonderful, but I seldom see the roof, and it didn't seem worth the time or effort to try to match the color, and then mask, and then paint ... In other words, I'm basically lazy, and I wanted to get the job done.

FWIW, we also used a strip of the tape on the sides, where the sliding seals were lifting the edge of the decals. Unlike the roof, this IS an appearance item, so we were a bit more careful there, but no new paint was required. Just ease the lifted edge of the decals back into place while easing the tape over the area.
