A picture of your damage would help. Small damage should be no problem for a competent body shop. If its fairly large and the structure of the side wall was intact, I would laminate the whole wall with a new fiberglass skin. I would remove any windows and trim/molding, smooth out the existing skin with 280 grit D/A paper, fill in the missing fiberglass with a mixture of resin and chopped glass if small. Larger areas I would repair with fiberglass cloth. Once cured, I would sand smooth. I would then attach the new skin with a quality type of waterproof contact adhesive. Replace all the items that was removed and any graphics and it should look brand new and durable as well.
This is only a suggestion as I have never done this type of repair. Having said that, I have done body work for 30 years and all types of fiberglass repairs and this is how I would do it if my own was ever damaged.
You can buy the skin and contact adhesive here

Shot in the dark here, but what about taking the coach back to MFR and have them redo it there? That is if they would. Shouldn't be that hard for them to do seeing they should have the build specs on it, make slides for their coaches then install them. If not, not to sound rude, but shame on them.
