Shop advice in NYC metro area...

[E30pistol]

Was hoping someone here knows of a good shop that does convertible tops for my 92 e30. I have it for sale and it needs a top and was thinking of replacing the top and enjoying the car and keeping it. It has 85K orig miles and is pretty clean.

I am on Long Island but willing to travel if someone knows of a place that does top replacements. I was quoted $1700 by an indi close to home ( the little garage). Matt over there is a great guy but I was hoping to spend closer to a grand for the top.

Any advice is much obliged!!!

i think you could, it takes about 4 hours if you do it by yourself. dont pay all that money for a shop to to it

Theres a shop i think Levent knows about...im also in need of one but will try to survive the summer with duct tape and a rain coat

I want it done right and I am willing to pay extra for that. I have looked into doing it myself but I have way to many questions that concern me.

I was fine with a couple of holes that I used some marine patches and duct tape but a couple of weeks ago I did this>>> and I'm pretty screwed now.. lol

Hopefully someone knows one. thanks!!

More duct tape

Is that a zipper rear window?

[E30pistol]

it is a zipper and that is an option but then I have a new windo and old top but that is weighing on me... I have not looked into the install of the window. Have you done it?

Have not but how hard could it be if its a zipper install?...try it
