It might help if you tell us which part. If you live next to a neighboring state you may find some help there as well.

Do you want to do it yourself? You can probably buy a new top from a supplier.

Texas is large. It takes more than 12 hours to drive across. What major metropolitan are you next to?

It will not be cheap. The tops alone are expensive.

You might try looking on the forum. It may be easier than you think.
