Ouch Tom!
I smashed my offside corner section about 3 years ago, much worse than yours and had it repaired for £150 cash – I did post photos at the time, but I’ll look at the earlier threads to see if its still here.
I got a silly qoute from Darren at Brownhills (480??, I think), apparently Hymer prices had increased significantly and he advised it would be cheaper to get repaired. I tried Bath repairers, but they wanted silly money nearly as much as a new part and in one case more! Eventually I tried a small repair shop out of town, who said that they would fit it in between jobs – I waited nearly 3 weeks mind, but it was good and cheap.
Mike Sidebottom had damaged his centre section a year or so earlier and he advised that he had his repaired locally to him at less than £200, I think??
My biggest concern with self repair was being able to match and get a good paint finish – and I am pleased that I didn’t try.
Best wished for a good outcome.
Fred
