That's cool you're getting new stuff.I got my door panels @ the JY from a Firebird.They are in exellent condition!

Black & grey go together.My interior is opp of yours--black carpet//grey seats.
Did you see the thread a member posted w//photos of his new seat covers awhile back?..Silver-grey seats w// black sides--fantastic looking!!
I forget the poster's name but he got them @ 1A also.

Re: Door panel options?!? Whats the best looking
I found these in a junkyard, practically mint in a mid 80s Berlinetta. I added the 1st gen badging myself, they are available on eBay for about $20. Somewhere on TGO there is a thread on how I did it. There is also a thread somewhere by me showing how I restored my door top plastics.
Keep in mind, if you have power windows and you get manual window door panels, you can use the plastic "buttons" that go in the seatbelt casings that cover the seatbelt bolts to plug the manual window holes in the door panels! As you can see this is what I did. Looks factory.
I hope these give you some ideas or inspiration.

Hey there is nothing wrong with getting interior stuff from Junk Yards. You never know what kind of goodies you can find in a Junk Yard. Its my favorite place to shop, cause i always save a ton of money.

This was done by a local custome shop. Soft leather to mimic original design.

Re: Door panel options?!? Whats the best looking
I believe they used the original panels as a template. Everything but the plastic bit on top of the door panel was re-done. It's kind of har to remember since I had the discussion. Basically, everyting in the interior was replaced but a few pieces on the dash and rear area pieces.
I hope this helps.
