I hope you have better luck and customer servce than we did.

Ordered a Front Storage Locker and paid, after numerous phone calls and unanswered emails it arrived 4 months later and did not include the two locks as agreed when ordering..

I think there may have been internal problems but they took the biscuit.

 I once repaired the ABS panel on an Award Transtar. It had been hit on the bottom corner quite badly whilst in storage. The storage owners offered to pay for a repair but no-one would take it on, so we reached a deal, I would take on the repair and they would give me a years free storage.                                                    

 This is what I did. Removed the lights and then the panel. It was held by screws under a trim strip at the top, by screws into the floor underneath and the awning rails either side. I then ducktaped a polythene sheet over the now exposed timbers and insulation to keep out the weather whilst I fixed the panel. Luckily I had most of the broken off bits and after a bit of headscratching, and then picking the splinters out of my fingers, I decided to build up the profile using shaped off-cuts of uPVC cladding and window sill board, sticking these together with uPVC glue and to the ABS with no-nails type adhesive/filler. I did this in stages allowing up to 24 hours between them to allow the adhesives to set. After getting everything as accurate as possible any final filling was done with Milliput (a fine two part filler used by modellers). A final rubdown with very fine sandpaper then two or three thin coats of spray paint. Actually the hardest part was matching the paint, a sort of cream/beige, I found a very near match in Halfords. Finally, replace the panel using plenty of sealant. Re-fit lights, Job done.

 Hope this gives you some ideas
