Repair of SS quarter panel.
 
I personally had a dent/crease in that same area of my trailer that could  
not be straightened.
I decided to cut a piece of anodized aluminum that matched perfectly and  
created a patch over that curved area and secured it with matching rivets.   I 
got the idea from where the furnace had been replaced through the years and  the 
dealer had created a patch over the original exterior exhaust.  This  may not 
sound attractive to an extreme perfectionists but finding a quarter  panel or 
having one created and re-constructed would be quite costly.  You  may also 
consider purchasing one of those aluminum vents that come in different  sizes 
of square and oval or round.  I have seen Streamlines and  Silver Streaks use 
those over areas where the original awning pipes were  secured. It beats open 
holes with caulking!
