WTF!

I am not familiar with your trailer. Did it actually have a preformed wheel well insert in it or was was there just material inside it to line it?

There is a youtube video showing the rebuilding of a wheel well using sheet metal. It looks pretty substantial in terms of deflecting rocks and keeping out water.

I blew out a tire which then blew a huge hole into the camper. I replaced the OSB then covered that with heavy gauge vinyl then aluminum diamond plate. Did both sides since I had a pattern from first side.

That sounds like a heavy duty repair!
