Angry Canvas Top Break In

I was parked downtown last weekend and some idiot broke into my car by separating the back plastic window from the canvas top. Of course the motion sensor activated the alarm, and he stopped half way through.

I wanted to get a new top anyways, because mine was faded a bit, so It's not all that bad... But I don't know which top to get, OEM or aftermarket, which aftermarket brands are good, and weather to attempt the work myself or have a shop do it. So if anyone has any info on what tops are good/bad etc.. I will appreciate anything. And if anyone has installed their own top, can you let me know if it's worth it, and whether you would do it again? I can handle run of the mill car problems, like radiator replacements, bolt on parts, etc... So the actual work doesn't scare me, it's just a matter of how much precision and expertise is needed to do this kind of work.
