I have been messing with the Final Fantasy 2 (j) rom for a bit changing sprites, spell names and other simple things. Now I would like to colorize the menus in the battle screen to match the other games in the series. If someone could help me out with how to do this I would really appreciate it.

You can try this out and see if you find the results acceptable, but I should warn you that it's not perfect.
Colorize windows (1st method*):
$2d6c0 -- 02 (color select)
$2d6c2 -- b6
Colorize windows (2nd method**):
$2d6c0 -- 02 (color select)
$2d6c2 -- b6
$2d74f -- 10
$2d751 -- 10
Black out area behind windows:
$2d7cb -- 6c
Black out areas at sides of windows:
$31b71 -- 6c
$31b7b -- 6c
Fix stat-gain window wipe:
$167e7-9 -- ea ea ea
Reduce colored line above windows***:
$2d7d0 -- 01
$2d7d3 -- 80
$2d7db -- 80
$2d7e4 -- 00
*This method replaces the gray part of the windows with black, and lets you select the main window color.
**With this method the gray part of the windows will vary in color with each battle, also lets you select color(brain-damage edit), and some graphical glitching may occur when starting a battle.
***Battles will not load if this line is removed entirely, so I reduced it to a single pixel at the left edge of the screen. May cause unpleasant glitches in some emulators--I have no idea which emulator(s), if any, emulate this game perfectly; I can only hope this method will work for most.

Thanks for the help. My school semester just started so I don't know if I'll have much time in the near future to work on this but I really appreciate the info.
By the way your final fantasy hacks are incredible. Thanks for all your hard work.
