Sounds cheap. Do not let them use a cheap vinyl or foam even if you have to buy it from PPI who did the original interior. Good luck

Who did you get this price from? Based on your location I am assuming NJ? Anything is possible but I would be skeptical. Does that include duplicating embroidered logos on bolsters and back bench? I dont know everyone, but I do know a few guys to stay away from.

depends on what they are going to do...if its just a vinyl replacement with nothing fancy then its about right....if they are doing any colored piping...or fancy stitching...or replacing foam or wood then it seems cheap

You dont care to share who it is though? If he is good, and price is as fair as you have noted, I could probably send some work his way.
