The SuperFlex membrane your Forest River came with is a different style than the LaSalle Bristol XTRM part # 3441700534142711435 that you referenced but that doesn't mean this wouldn't work. It's just a different style.

We have this membrane as a kit that includes sealants and butyl tape with part # 344270KIT35 which would come with everything you would need to install the membrane. I attached an install video link to this page for you to check out as well.

The color is white.
