Default Ordering new top

I'm ordering a new top from hardtopguy. I'm feeling a bit too lazy to do it myself. Can anyone recommend a good shop to do it? Or should I take it to the Honda dealer so that I'm sure it's done right?

Hope everyone made it though the storm!

Thanks,
-Chris

Hey Dennis,

Thanks for the response. As long as they do good work and it's not leaky, that's all that matters to me. If you don't mind my asking, how much did they charge you?

Thanks,
-Chris

That's f'ing cheap. Well worth it if they do it right. Willy and I did my top, and it took a lot longer than 6 hours.

Sorry for the delay in my response. Got sent out of town last minute.

Thanks for the response. $400.00 sounds like a pretty good price. I'll contact Stewart at Economy in a week or two to get this done.

Thanks again,
-Chris

Chris

$400 is the lowest he will go. Actually he wanted $450 and I told him no my invoice said $400, since he got my bluetop thats why he gave me a break on the labor. But anyway I told Stewart that I already told my friends you charged $400 so is too late or they will go some where else. He said fine $400.00

I feel pretty good saving $50 for you guys haha
