Hi, recently we had a bad storm that had some very high winds. The flap that covers up the fold out couch flipped up and destroyed the fiberglass part of it. The aluminum framing of the flap is still good but i need some advice on whether i should try to fix it, get it repaired by a pro or just get a complete replacement. If anybody knows where i can just get a new one that would be best, if not then where can i get the material to repair it?

Also, the fiberglass front window cover also cracked so i also need to know if i can get a replacement for that as well. Any help is greatly appreciated!
 
You didn't hear this from me but...A neighbor wanted an awning for his 5th wheeler tip out like the one on my Hi Lo. He made the frame with square aluminum, used a piano hinge and 15 lb struts. Then went looking for sheet fiberglass--Presto-- he found it a PODS dealer!!! Seems they remove some PODS due to age or damage. They allowed him to remove a very large side for free! They were going to destroy the sheeting anyway.
It's not perfectly smooth, but it's thick and strong, it did the job and it's white.
