I found the best auto upholstery shop in San Diego, highly recommended, and they also did convertible tops. They did an excellent job and charged around $1100-1200. Some neighbors bought the S2000 for their 22 year old son as a graduation gift and the last time I saw it it still looked good. (He first saw it when he was 11 and had apparently told his parents that it was his dream car!)

You might want to ask local BMW CCA members where they have their tops and upholstery done.

(BTW, when I had the S2000 top replaced it looked way better than the OP's top!)

Thanks I am leaning towards Robbins or GAHH, but wrestling with whether to tackle myself or have shop do it. I’ve seen the write up on how to the top assembly but replacing the fabric seems like a mf’er of a job.
