door panels and such the best source is to go for a more compatible color from the junk yard.....ie: get a black interior from another 5th gen. Then, you can customize the panels and such. Otherwise you have to paint, and paint usually looks like crap after about a year. So I highly recommend against that. Even when done perfectly it'll usually begin to crack and fade after a two year period..easily

Recovering it all in new material is the only reliable and quality way to do it. You can paint it, but it won't hold up very nicely under wear and tear. They have professional ways of painting interiors, but in no way is it cheap.

None that I know of. There was only a grey/dark grey, blue/light blue, and tan/brown interiors availible from the factory.
