I send all my SoCal7 friends to Romans Upholstery in La Puente and have been doing it for 10 years. Always great feedback. On Valley about 3-4 miles east of the 605. http://maps.google.com/maps/place?rl...33546070080301
Excellent workmanship and compared to all other auto upholstery places I've heard about their labor prices, Romans are the best. I own three Verts, so am sensitive to this situation very well. But, it won't be cheap.
There are a couple of top suppliers out there. But trust me, only get a Robbins top. The ones they sell on EBay (made by Acme) for $200-400 sound good, but they fit and look like crap. More over, they miss important padding that keep it from premature tearing against the frame.
In 10 years of surfing pic a parts, only once did I ever see a good vert top. So new is pretty much you answer.

This is really a conversation you should also be having in the West section I might add.
