Exclamation Quality Vert Replacement

I have searched and searched and searched yet I have been unable to find a post on this. I have an S4 vert and I am looking for a quality top with headliner, although i do not need the back glass, since mine is fine. I found one place but they want over $1200 just for the materials, but I'm leary of paying Joe Blow $300 to do it and have it come out looking like ***. I guess I'm looking for anyone who has ordered one and not had a problem with it and also wondering if this is something that I can do myself, it looks pretty straight forward.

By the way, I'm just an S4 noob, I pretty much know what I'm doing when it comes to cars, as I've worked on many different types, including mods, at both dealerships, custom shops and custom stereo shops, just clueless on upholstry skills if they're required to do the install.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I just called AABestco and they were great to deal with on the phone, I talked to Carl, the owner, and he gave me all the info I needed. They're prices are great too, It's only $259 for the vinyl and $399 for canvas, and $112 for the headliner and it includes the plastic retainer strip sewn in and enough extra material to recover the underside of the targa. I went ahead and ordered the canvas with a new headliner, since mine's seen better days, and I have to take out the old one anyway. Stay tuned for a how to coming up soon!

I'm awaiting a call back for they're replacement carpet kit, I may go ahead and get that too.
