I am looking at redoing the canvas and vinyl on my 2003 330 Express. The "canvas" on newer models is almost like a sail cloth as opposed to an actual canvas. Does anyone know what the actual material is?

I'm doing the same. If A&J Canvas in Vanceboro NC is still doing GW OEM canvas, they'll know. I'm planning on having them make me a new set for my 2007 330 next month. My original set feels more like sail cloth than canvas, maybe somewhere in between. I know they do 2 colors and two types of glass. It will be interesting to hear what you get for response. Good Luck!

There seem to be some options, but I expect it to be around $2K.

The blue fabric was sunbrella and the newer white material is stamoid as I understand it. Might be worth shooting an email to GW Customer Service and ask them to provide the material and plastic used as well.

Just call a and J they will tell you what they use. I just had mine done with sunbrella and strataglass. It turned around out great.

The ivory color is Stamoid - I redid my Marlin with it several years ago. The navy color was Sunbrella.
