Which convertible top should I buy?

I just bought a 1991 convertible and I need to replace the black convertible top material. Can anyone offer advice on what type of material and what supliers are good?

one other question.
Is the front suspension really that much stiffer than the rears on stock cars?

This was a site I had bookmarked, but it is sold in components.
http://tops4less.com/convertible-tops-mazda-rx7.html

Another good site, lots of options

I would really shop around even more, I have never replaced my top and am afraid to try.

robbins tops are supposebly the best for quality and fitment, i belive the kit with rain gaurds is around 500-600 bucks but from what ive heard of their work its well worth it.

I bought a Robins top for $525 with tax. RX-7 World had them for $425 but it was going to take longer to get.

The price is for just the rear section. I thought it would be worth it for the better fit. The targa section is in decent shape. I have not cut the rear window yet but as long as I am carefull that should not be a problem.
