Central VA convertible help

So I just bought a 89 iroc vert. Anyone know of a shop in the south central area of VA or the northern central area of NC that will do a great job installing a new top. Only two shops in my town that could possibly do the job and all the vert tops they install end up with wrinkles on the area behind the door glass. Anyone know a good shop

Re: Central VA convertible help

no top just yet will send you a list of parts i need off the vert most of them have to do with the convertible stuff. one must have item if yours is in good shape is the passenger side weatherstripping that the top of the passenger door window seals to. not sure of the proper name.
