Convertible Top Replacement Reputable Shop

Title kind of says it all, I live near Trenton and I am thinking of replacing my top soon but I am not confident to do this myself....nor do i have the time.

How much will top cost?
Where can I get one of OEM quality? (Black)
Who could install such a top perfectly?
How much would this cost?

Thanks!

Thanks I will call them Tuesday to get a quote. I seemed to be getting numbers from $1,000-$1,300 which i feel is high so hopefully they will charge less to do this job.

Yeah, 1000-1300 in the D.C. area for top and labor. Average installation, even though they were referred by the local (Fox) Chevrolet dealer at the time. Prices are about the same until you get out to...you guessed it....West Virginia.

Yea the top is getting worse by the minute, still don't have $1,000+ to fix it and the lowest quoted place I found, yea went there they other day, they went out of business!

I wish I had the balls to rip it off and try to put it on myself but all I would do is destroy the car, it would be pointless.

That being said thank you for suggesting a reputable shop to call to inquire!
