I think DaBlue also had his custom done at a local shop for >$100 and his looks great. (I would got mine done too, but I never planned on keeping bike for long, so I'm not investing into tons of mods for it).
Not as professional but you can technically reshape it yourself. Takes some effort but it's been done before. If all you want is a reshape, not really add alot of foam, it probably wont cost more than $50 for foam and a yard of marine vinyl. Although, <$100 is a pretty damn good deal for a custom seat. Either way, post some photos if you can after it get's done. I've been looking into doing this as well and it would help me alot.
