Question Slight damage to wallpaper/paneling

The previous owners of our Dutchman evidently tried to close the slide while the chair in the LR was in the way (a couple of times it seems) and scratched up the panel on the wall behind the chair. I'll never be able to find wall paper to match so - does anyone have any suggestions? Should I just spackle where the scratches are to fill them in and then paint the wall a color to match? The paneling is sort of a light tan/cream marble type print.

And I might as well add this - there is a small "chunk" of flooring missing - any suggestions on how to go about fixing that?

Contact Trekwood to see if they have seam tape to disguise the wall damage. A professional flooring installer may be able to take a piece of flooring out of a cabinet and repair the flooring damage.

You're welcome. I bought some cheap seam tape off eBay for a previous Forest River Salem after I pulled a wall panel to install bracing for an add-a-room.
