You did the correct thing in asking what to do. When I was faced with these sorts of things that is what I would do, then find the best fix that I would be happy with.
I have not seen a perfect RV yet.
I would not buy a new skin, however I would just put a patch over it ( outside ) and rivet it in. If you wanted to get " flash " you could make it into some sort of inspection hole. I have a patch on one of my wings and no one has pointed it out.
I dont see it as a safety issue, just sent an email to Vans and see.
Build on !
