trailer boards

Hello, I borrowed a trailer to go on a camping holiday. I got there and back safely, only to crash the trailer when I tried to reverse it onto my drive! I broke the corner off the trailer board. I would like to return it in the same condition that I borrowed it. As the damage is at the end of the board, I don't think filler would work; I worry it might fall out in the future with nothing to hold it at the one end. There are lots of places selling new boards but since all of the lights etc are working, that just seems wasteful, but the only [place I can find selling blank boards is: only they have a postage surcharge on long items! Does anyone know where I can buy lengths of trailer board or what the plastic used to make them is called? If not, would a piece of 5x1 be just as good? Thanks, Stephen.

That was my thought. A clean apology with a promise to put right says a lot about a person.

I would probably buy another (cheap for the friendship) and keep the old one as a spare for myself, and if need be available for my friend (just in case!).

As a lender I would not be happy with a repair. If you value your friendship, just replace.
