Damaged skin and awning

My 2007 27' Classic caught the edge of a steel roof overhang. The front awning strut got pulled away from the skin where the bracket is attached with 3 metal screws (see attached photo). How would an experienced Airstreamer deal with this? Can the scratches and slight dent be repaired? What can I do with the holes where the metal screws were pulled out? Where do you go to find Zip Dee parts?

Call Zip Dee at 800-338 BEST for the parts.

Ask for Linda.

Try Zip Dee's site, they know their stuff, then call "Linda" @ parts. Have your year and model and part #(s) needed.
