Do you have the Cesana enclosure ? I met one person who was using a shower curtain. He had the Cesana Italian enclosure and  parts are difficult to find. I believe foretravel and Newell used them also and have some parts but prefer to deal with current owners of their brand. I was told the Cesana door if found was over 1000$ At least that's what he told me was the reason for the curtain!

There was a large and a small corner shower.  The larger of the two was imported by Holcom glass of Seattle.  Holcom wont talk to you, only their distributors.  I have searched USA, Argentina, and Italy.  A shower curtain was the only answer I could find until we bought the new coach. 
Recently talked to the new owner of our 98 Patriot and he still uses the shower curtain.
Hope you have better luck.

I have wondered if someone could form acrylic with some heat into that arc. The liquor cabinet doors on the Marquis are a curved acrylic so someone is doing that work. Maybe see if they could scale it up. You could share the problem and cost of the glass version and let them know that there is a market for an alternative and see if they would give it a try. You have the frame shape for the form using the door metal frame. Something like this...

Glenn, this was discussed several years ago. The importer was in New York state, but I don't remember their name. A search of archives may provide more information.
