That is all I did, sheet metal screws into the lip there. My 1st gen Tacoma must be stronger metal, I had no flex, the 3rd gen Tacoma I get flex and put a magnet on the outside to protect the paint when deployed.
I am not sure what the corner issue is, I agree looks damaged, but more like is spread out over time. Opening with no torsion bar should not be an issue, several owners have done t bar delete. I replaced mine with one from Sway - A - Way
welcome to the FP club
I just saw this in an ad - The Canvas Works in Sausalito

I have watched for years for this info too. Best bet is find a boat canopy seamstress and take your tent off for a pattern. If they skip the top vent, it seems straight forward to sew a replacement.

any reason not to?
If you only take one bike, you can do it inside. I have a 5' bed 1st gen Taco and carry my bike inside when traveling and use the rack when just around. I like being able to lock up my bike inside when visiting a town. I can take a picture or two if you want.
Yesterday my Taco turned over 300,000 miles. I had planned to be doing something epic (camping somewhere cool) for the occasion, but covering Hurricane Florence is epic enough!
