There are a few things that need to be repaired and a few things that I would like to add. First both end caps need to be replaced. So I started to look and see where to purchase them. I started to investigate what the part numbers are. Sad to say I found out that Coleman/Fleet went out of business. Finding this out I started to call around to the local camper sales companies and also on the internet hoping that someone might at have a set of them lying around in the back of a stock room. Well there were none to be found. At this point I had to start to think about how I was going to fix them or replace them. These end caps are made with a very thin plastic. I came up with a few ideas on what to do.
1. I could fill them with construction foam and then use a little fiber glass to go over the cracks and then just paint them white.
2. Use the end caps as molds and make new ones out of fiber glass or resin.
3. Take off the plastic and aluminum and then reskin the camper.
4. Or just do nothing and keep the camouflage duck tape on it and pretend that there is a bush growing on the side of the camper.
I am going to take number 3 but I am planning to use diamond plate.
