Front Filon Cap repair or replacement
I have some delamination on the front cap of my travel trailer. Its starting to look pretty bad. The trailer is only 5 years old and living in so cal with the current drought, there has been very lit...

I'm guessing an aluminum cap would have less potential movement and be just as durable as Fiberglass. I'd also bet the price is high.
I thought you might search on this Forum to see if someone with the same year/model had a wavy end cap instead of delamination. If it's just waves or bulges, you may have choices beyond replacing it. Just a WAG but removing the cap, maybe strengthening the frame, and then reinstalling with the fiberglass allowed to stretch, might cure most of the problem. Do the smaller ripples radiate from attachment points (like the edge trim)?
