2015 Passport ultra elite front panel is bulking from heat

I have a 2015 Passport ultra elite 23RB with the front panel bulking up in the top right corner (layers glue appears to have let separated). It is very expensive to have the front panel replaced with the same type of panel but noticed that Keystone started putting the hard fiberglass cap on the 2016 model and up. I would much rather invest the money on the new cap than risk the delam of the front panel again. This seems to be very common on the 2015 and older and is probably the reason for the change with the 2016 model.
My question is, has anyone done this replacement upgrade? Where can the front cap be purchased for the 2016 Passport ultra elite or newer models?

Looks like you can get a front cap for a 2016 model from Trekwood:
https://www.trekwood.com/products/57...l-Need-Painted

$2,280.... with no paint or labels, so you would be looking at upwards of $4-5k to get it all done and installed. IMO I would talk to your dealer and see if they can get you a better price than Trekwood, who is normally quite expensive. My experience is that the dealers usually offer better prices than Trekwood. And call all the dealers in your area to shop around.
