Question:

My awning does not have a weather shield at the top when rolled up can I replace this fabric with one that does? That’s where the fabric is failing where it meets the coach from exposure

The Solera 16' Replacement Awning Fabric - Black Fade # LCV000334394 does have that short black section towards the coach side that will wrap around and offer a little more protection to the awning from the elements. As long as your Solera awning is 16' wide you'll be good to go. These all use the same mounting features which is why you need to basically just match the dimensions with what you currently have.

Please note that it is recommended the fabric be opened and installed within 30 days of shipping to prevent permanent creasing or cracking from prolonged storage in a folded position.
