Vinyl top in PHX, AZ

Good morning,

I'm looking for a recommendation on an upholstery shop in the Phoenix area. I need a new vinyl top. I've called around and got bids ranging from $400 to $800. Most are $500-$600, including the visors I need recovered. I have no idea what the reputations are of any of these places. I can't find any information on the BBB website or anywhere else.

Does anyone have a recommendation? I'd really appreciate it?

Thanks!

You can get that material from a fabric store and do it yourself. You will need to use some GOOD adhesive for a good strong bond. I bet you would come out better than you realize... its not really that hard.

Good point, but my knuckles have bled enough on this car. I just want to have someone do it for me for a change.

I've heard good things about Dagostino's in Mesa, for convertible tops. I'm not sure if they do vinyl tops though. Another upholstery shop with a decent reputation is Able's. (several valley locations) Check 'em out and let me know what you think.

As far as the top goes you might try DeVries in Wickenburg, Dave has a lot of experience in the older restorations.
