Hey, hey, you guys, leave the Bajas out of it, lol

$3500 total
$2700 for flooring
$800 to rebuild driver side bolster, it was falling apart. Everything looks great!

You payed almost $3k for that !?!?
I guess if they installed it and had to remove seats and stuff you gotta pay more.
I`m at $1500 cockpit and rear step and between the hatches all the way down 3 color 9mm.

Yes I paid $3500 for that. I just dropped the boat off. They did come to my house to take measurements which is a two hour drive from their shop (round trip). I’m sure the materials didn’t cost much, mostly paying for labor. I’m used to paying $3500 to have something fixed on the boat. It was nice to see something vastly improved for $3500. I felt like I was winning today🤣

SecondWind,

The company we spoke to at the boat show in Cincinatti gave us a soft quote (non-committal without seeing the boat) of $2200, and that was 2yrs ago, and, supposedly, the "boat show special", which we obviously didn't jump on, so your $2700 doesn't sound too far off the mark.

Thanks. Brad.

Dan,

Where did you get yours done?

Thanks. Brad.

Wind, as long as you`re happy that`s all that matters.

Bradster, a place in Loto.
I always negotiate however, $1500 wasn`t the first price.

In a niche world like marine upholstery and interiors, I would think negotiating gets you a lower quality final product then if you just paid full price from the get go.

I'm happy with the flooring and bolster. I'd recommend Kastelic Canvas to anyone for marine interior work. I don't mind paying for good work. I hear you though about paying asking price without questions. I've also been taken advantage of with my trusting nature for sure.

Ryan11, Not sure why you would think that.
The design and material isn`t changing and it`s snap in so how could I get less quality?
Customers negotiate with me all the time, I have a certain number in mind which doesnt include cutting corners. Once they get to my I have to cut corners price then they can go somewhere else.
Slow times I give way better pricing, LOTO is a ghost town so I`m taking advantage of that. He started high, I started low and we met in the middle. he was happy and so was I , win win.


If you don`t negotiate then you`re just costing yourself money, what`s the worst thing that could happen?
