I'm not your expert here but if it were my rig I would first verify that I didn't have a leak. I might actually drill a small hole(s) to inspect and verify. Maybe drill right into a damaged spot(s) that needs repair anyway.
Can you pound the damaged areas flush? Or create dimples that need to be filled? I would try that, then find a suitable sandable filler to make the wall smooth again.
I would then get two small cans of wood stain. One can would be the same as the lightest color on the wall and the other can would be the same as the darker color. Prepare the paneling to accept the stain and start touching up using the lighter stain as a base. Let that dry, then use the darker stain and a suitable applicator to duplicate the patterns in the paneling. If you cannot duplicate to your satisfaction, consider recreating your own uniform finish over the entire wall.
Finish the job with a coat of poly to waterproof against the next swimsuit.
Again, not an expert but I have used this technique on wood and steel surfaces in my S & B. Good luck.
