Outside skin

[Dcom77]

So, we just got our '93 Classic 36' Fifth Wheel on a trade & decided to take it out for it's maiden voyage trip. All went well, until we got home. That's when I noticed that part of the outside skin, on the passenger side, by the front window, had blown off sometime during our trip home. Approx. a 1 foot by 3 foot section. My question is, is there anywhere I can purchase replacement skin for the rv? Or is there a suggested fix? I'd like to make it look as much as like the original as I can, in case of resale. Any info or suggestions is greatly appreciated!!! Thanks in advance!!

Welcome to the forums!

Got a picture of the damage and what your unit looks like?

Is it the corrugated siding or the smooth fiberglass? Corrugated is readily available and fairly easy to repair. The smooth stuff is available but the repair is more difficult to do properly.

It's definitely the corrugated metal. I consider myself very mechanically inclined, so if I could just locate the material, I know I can fix it. Thanks for your help!!

I bought some from these guys many years ago. They were quite helpful. FWIW I bought enough to do a full 23' trailer at the time. You are going to have to figure out which pattern you have, then go from there. This is another site that has good information on it, I would give them a try. Another possibility is to see if you can locate any units in a junk yard. I have done that with Airstream panels before.
