You didn't say what material you are replacing and how long it lasted.
Is there any need to be concerned with in-kind replacement? In the
right conditions, I think you might get nearly as many years out of the
other two (50 yrs. for yellow, you said) so you might want to consider
cost/longevity although installation is going to be a fairly high
percentage that, if need twice as often e.g. over another product, would
make a big difference.
Something else to think about possibly is what happens to the appearance
do to weathering. Different types are suppose to weather to different
hues (although I believe some feel it has more to do with environment
than material). Will it matter that your project is visually different
than the rest of the lot(s)?
