Does anyone know what it looks like under the fabric on the window valances? 
Is it MDF? Finished wood? Unfinished plywood?

    Someone posted that it was plywood with glue on it. I was hoping it would be the pretty wood like the cabinets, too. I purchased some fabric and covered them using Velcro made for fabric. Good luck with your project.

    You can order new wooden valences from the nüCamp factory.

    I started to try getting it off, and found it was too permanently attached to be removed without damage.

    I had my fabric lined valances replaced.   I'm pretty handy and thought I'd do it myself, but after seeing what the factory had done (and being told by a factory rep to let them perform this work as it'd be more difficult and tedious) I'm glad I paid to have this work performed as it is a bit more challenging and involved than what I thought.  After you see their handiwork and the finished product I'm betting that those who see it will agree, this is a project that is best left in the hands of the craftsman at the factory.  

    Just sayin'   ;)

    I LOVE my wood valances and it is one of the nicest additions inside the trailer.
