Skin replacement cost

I am looking to purchase a 1964 Globetrotter. It has 2 skin sections that need to be replaced, top left front corner. Can the new skins be polished to match the original? How much would it cost to replace the skins?

Cost for the skin segments is going to be about $300.00 dollars each plus shipping. Easily $600.00 just in parts to replace the segments. Then add labor and shop time. I would say that anything less than $1200.00 for a professional repair would be a bargain.

Found skins at inland rv, $385 each, waiting on quote on shipping. Local Airstream dealer (100 miles) not interested in doing the replacement.
