interior panels

hey guys. have got a 130i in Perth. recently purchased a BMWP SSK awaiting delivery and install. understand that the kit has an alcantara wrapped boot. currently car has glacier silver interior paneling which is quite chipped courtesy of previous owner.

am wondering if its worth the effort wrapping the panels? in terms of cost/durability etc? and if so. carbon fiber or alcantara. and if so.. where in Perth that's trustworthy and won't damage the panels and the clips?

as far as i understand, all they are, are wrapped (at least in real CF) not moulded or anything 'proper', which is a bit of a disappointment for the price
