RV salvage yard s are one source. And there is a website that can get them made for you - see RV Compartment Doors
A repair shop I have used, Mike's RV Collision in Wilmington, NC, has a local source that will make them or reskin them if the shop can't fix the damage. Give them a call and see what they can do for you. Mike's does really excellent work.
Fleetwood is probably your best source, though. Bay doors are unique in most cases, and at least they have the exact plans for yours and the ability to fabricate them. identically. It may take a long time to get the new ones, though. I waited 5 months for a new front cap on my '04 Tradition.

If you want a door from Fleetwood, it's lots cheaper to go through the dealer. Fleetwood will sell one much cheaper to them than to you.

Well they may sell it cheaper to the dealer but the dealer will "M A R K" it up a lot anyway.

Hello,
I used to rebuild em, fix em, Sometimes I just used the old door as a template and just made a new door. Especially when Monaco went under. NO PARTS.
I was pretty busy for a long time. I guess everyone got caught up. I'll Fix it if ya like.
I've got before and after pictures on one job I found in my archives. Three doors where bent up pretty bad. I thought I was gonna reskin them. Until they shipped them wow. The 3/4 x3/4 sq. aluminum tubing inside, which is the frame and strength of the door was crushed on one end of all three doors. So template time. I made three new doors and shipped em. Customer said they fit perfect, he had them at a body shop the day after he received them. If your interested I'll send you the pictures
Thanks,
Kodadawg
