Default Front panel repair question

I just looked at a model 2203T that looks to be in really good condition both inside and out. There is an vertical crack in the front panel above the front window that is about eight inches in length and one corner where the fiberglass is just starting to crack. Has anyone removed the entire front panel to structurally reinforce it from the backside? Also, the domed skylight in the bathroom is significantly yellowed from the sun. Does anyone know if there is a suitable replacement available?

Thank you.

If you stop drill the crack, it won't continue to grow. Then, you can fill the crack anyway you please, which could include taking the front cap off and doing it from the inside. Others HAVE done this, but I haven't. I've just stop drilled the cracks and then filled them with caulk (I recommend using ONLY Lexel caulk - stay away from silicone on a trailer). .

One good source for trailer parts is etrailer.com. I suspect they would have a skylight that would fit your trailer's opening.
