1998 202 Shabah New Interior Quotes
 
I have been getting quotes to replace my 202's interior upholstery as the old stuff is pretty sun-dried, cracked, and my sun deck needs complete re-fabrication (along with those four headrests)....
My quotes have been running from $1900.00 to $4500.00 and I have heard that "1/2" PVC is the way to go for the wood replacement" or "stay with 3/4" plywood because it's stronger" to "King Starboard is what you need to use"....
Does anyone want to weigh in on this and give me some pointers and viewpoints? So far, all my quotes were obtained from me sending out photos of the current interior.

Just wondering if the quotes include all the upholstery and not just the seats?

I have a similar issue with my 1998 Shabah 180 as a raccoon did its deed over the winter. But my quotes in Iowa are roughly $9800-$12k for all seats, panels, carpet and snap cover.

Firestone - Includes all upholstery.... Even replacing bad wood substructures and rebuilding my four missing headrests for the bench seat from a sample that I obtained

Just an update.... And there's another thread about current goings on in the world of the sun-baked 202....
We removed the side padded panels from the bow section and will just do those ourselves. We're going to use Starboard and foam it and wrap it in solid white or teal. No seams or inset colors (like the original) to complicate it or make it a cleaning nightmare.
Also removed the "sundeck/engine cover and will be replacing the 1/4" thick plywood with 1/2" thick Starboard. I will probably have the upholstery guy cover that because it is so visible and will probably be white with teal inset. The bench seat will be all his, as we will unscrew the seat hinges and carry the seat up to his shop..... Probably have him cover the bow seating after I replace the wood with Starboard. Again, white with teal. Lastly, I will recreate the four headrests from the one OEM that was sent to me and those will be teal.

Still in my garage but it's filling up with foam sheets, Starboard, stainless steel hardware, and just picked up an 8-1/2 foot wide by 25 foot long roll of Sunbrella material and a snap crimping tool.
