4 bow bimini question: 2008 226BR

I currently have no bimini on my newly purchased 2008 226BR. After much research I have decided to go with a 4 bow bimini for max coverage.
Does anyone already have one and if so where did you purchase it?
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated. I am very nervous about spending upwards of $500 for a top with stainless upgrade only to discover I should have bought something different.
Again, thanks..............

I have the factory 3 bow bimini and all I can say is that 4 bows would be nice. You won't regret it.

Recently installed a mail order top from GMI top design.com. Great top and hardware, I think I was around $500.00. Four bow for sure and six foot of shade covers the entire cockpit. They web site has instructions on how to measure and install.

I have a 4 bow on my little 182 and love it. It covers everything except the bow. It came off of a different boat my seller had after I talking him into throwing it in the deal. If I had to replace it, I would go with another one just like it.
