It should not be as much as that. 2 weeks ago we had new foam cut for my
sister's Westy. The bench pieces and the large rear cushion were less
than $70 total. Not the cheap stuff either, blue medium density. The
larger piece was glued up from a big piece and a couple scraps at one
end. She bought some nice fabric for $25 and sewed it up. Looked nice, I
was jealous.
