Default Is it possible to add leather/alcantara bits to base door panels?

I didnt spec my car and it came with the base interior. its great, mostly. the door panels look like they are missing something. trims, or leather, etc. Anyone every tried to make the base door panels look better?

Random, i know. Its too cold outside.

They sell it on Suncoast individually, and it seems like a simple pop and swap, so yea.

Maybe call a place like LA Dismantlers and buy the entire leather/alcantara door cards from a wreck?

I appreciate that. Good idea.

Id settle for even the silver trim on the door...

Leather door panels with door trim are very expensive unless they are from a flood car. Expect to spend $1200-1500 per door. Watch out on driver's side door as some have seat memory controls near the handle and replacing that plastic requires drilling plastic rivets.

Also, watch out for used panels that are delaminated. Half the stuff on eBay has the vinyl pulling away from the backing.
