Does anyone make complete shower stalls for vintage Airstreams? The more I look at all the seams, rivets trim pieces, etc. Our shower pan isn't cracked but that's probably mainly due to the design not being conducive to using the thing. It seems there are only two options that make any sense if I'm going to dig into this project.

#1 Come up with a one piece surround that will incorporate a real shower door:
This is made difficult by the small amount of room to begin with and greatly complicated by the fact the walls are all curved and there's a window extending into the space.

#2 Redo the entire bathroom to make it water proof:
Is this what's called a "wet bath" or do I have the terminology backwards? It certainly has some appeal. For one you could get a shower stall big enough for someone besides a pigmy. Second any shower/bath area is going to be moist just from steam; even more so because there's no venting unless you open the window. So waterproofing the entire space seems like a good idea and would certainly be a big help with clean-up.
