I got my light kits and window visors on Friday. Still waiting to install them due to the weather. It might be forever considering I don't have a garage and live in Oregon. My dash kit from carid.com won't be shipped until next week Friday even though I purchased them this past week. I guess patience is a virtue right?
I'm also looking into changing the fabric on the door panels. Has anyone done this? I know there were a couple of posts in DIY section but it explained taking the whole door panel off to do this despots the actual stock fabric section does not come out at all. Is it possible to cover up the fabric with another choice without taking the door panel off? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the replies. I didn't know that the vinyl pieces weren't that great. I am wanting to change the interior but not to something that really stands out. I like having a subtle but sleek look to it. I also like the way that carbon fiber looks. If I did paint my panel/dash pieces I don't know what color I would paint them. I also don't want to pay too much for my modifications. If I did paint them is there any colors that people would suggest or have tried? Also, what kind of paint would I use. I read on some posts that people use Krylon. Would that leave an odor in the cabin? Being new to this I really don't know where to start. 
Absolutely don't change anything at all blindly!  Wanting to change something isn't a good enough reason to make a change.  You need to have at least a reasonable vision of how you want it to look before you commit cash to anything.  Spend time looking at photos and thinking about what would really work well for you, personally.  Just because somebody else likes something is no reason to suppose that's something you should do.  Mods can make your car perfect for you, but they can also result in something you really don't like at all.

I got the black Carbon Fiber. I want to keep my interior as dark a spossible. I'm also thinking about picking up some Black CF wraps from rvinyl to do the door panels/A,B and C pillars and the trunk area. I saw it some other post in here and I think it looks really good. It ties into keeping my car sleek and subtle. Kind of nervous about having to remove all the plastic parts though. Do you guys think it will work/look the same if I just used the wraps without disassembling the panels/pillars, etc.? I'm also think about re-doing the door panel fabric to a dark gray argyle print. Once I get the parts in I will definetly take some pictures and post them on here.
Did you get your dash kit done? I'm beginning a project myself, but am going an entirely differant route. I have amost of the enterior panels off of another XB, and might want to sell some wrapped ones......
