We have a GMC 4108, and we are thinking about putting skin over the old window holes, and putting in new square windows. We are leaning towards aluminum at this moment, over fiberglass. Does anyone experiences or suggestions? Also, where did you go to get the aluminum, or fiberglass done? Did you like the work?

Thanks,

I don't have a buffalo, but am considering options for skinning over window holes on my Flxi. Wonder if someone can give pros and cons of smooth aluminum vs. the corrugated stuff used on RVs.

Thanks,
Scott

International Bus Parts can provide ribbed aluminum that matches your bay door aluminum panels for a GMC. I don't know if they can do it for a Flxible.

Is this their Web site?

I'd have to give them a buzz as their site does not have parts listed yet. I think the fluting on my lower section is pretty basic and should be easy enough to match. Sorta looks like this:

with about six inch centers.

Thanks,
