Can anyone recommend a company to re-trim my targa roof near Bristol,

I can find two people who do it, Surry Trimming come highly recommended (but thats a long drive for a new roof)

And Porsche Shop... but they just don't reply to emails

Help! I'm sure I can find someone, but want it done properly!

Southbound do roofs as far as I know. Not local either, but they are good. You could courier it back and forth maybe?

If it was my Targa I would want them to trim it with the car, so that they get the fit absolutely spot on. You don't want any whistles or snagging trim.

Southbound are excellent and have a very good reputation.

+1

They usually need the car for about a week - half the cost is the labour involved in fitting, adjusting etc.
