I can do one in 1 hour. Or to make it look perfect it takes me 4 to 6 hours. I think the cost could be based on the time it takes and the quality of work.

Do you have to supply the lube???150 for a headliner and 250 for the top.(you supply)
The cost of living in the northeast is what makes the prices a lot higher , I WISH I could get quality work done for that little.

The price would have to depend on whether or not the car is assembled or not. It's way easier, and of course cheaper to do a v-top and headliner on a fresh resto, verses a car that is assembled, and you have to stip the trim off the car. I agree with 4-6 hours on a perfect headliner install. Vinyl tops could be pricey if you're dealing with old glue, or worse, find rust.
I probably should have mentioned that.. Car is a restoration car.. There is no interior and old headliner is out, I have all bows etc. and the headliner. Roof is stripped and all clean, glass is out too and I have the top..

Why don't you give it a shot and DIY? Worst that could happen is that you ruin a $75.00 headliner... The vinyl tops are pretty easy when all of the trim and glass is out of the car. Go to Restorick's website for headliner installation tips. Seriously, it's not that hard and the sense of accomplishment will be a good feeling
