We decided to add an additional front bimini on the 2005 2575rfs. Some days we could really use the extra shade. First, I am very disappointed in the price the dealer gave me to purchase the OEM front bimini. The quote was right at $1,500.00 ! Now I understand that accessories are pricey from a dealer, but you can buy 8 ft. bimini kits all day long for under 600 bucks online, so I'm not paying nearly three times that much for one. Having said that, the one I bought will need a few frame mods to make it fit up right. Two years ago I bought a ski bar from the dealer for my boat...at a cost of 600 dollars and me mounting it myself. I was ashamed for having paid that much for what was a very generic looking bar. There wasn't a hundred bucks of material in that setup. I wish bennington would appreciate there customers a little more. ugh.
