New Convertible Top -- Where to get

New Convertible Top -- Where to get
I have a 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder. The soft top has a patch on it, which contrasts the black fabric ( it has faded from the rain ), and leaks in various areas. I'm looking to replace it and I have only gotten two estimates so far. One was from my friend telling me how much he saw it to be from a place in Norfolk (forget the name), and another which I got from Mitchell's Complete Upholstery.
Both were over a thousand dollars.
The one I got (was the cheaper of the two) was
Top ---------------- $750.00
Tax ----------------- $37.50
Labor -------------- $275.00
_______________________
Total $1062.50
Does this seem like a descent deal to you guys?
Any suggestions for alternative places to check out near Chesapeake?
Thanks for your time and help,
Joe

I've found the top online for cheaper than the upholstery place's price. However they charge double to install it if I don't buy the top from them.
