The sport seat backs & console can easily be painted by a good body shop. The instrument surround & air vents can probably be done, but the vent slats will remain. You may also have some mismatch problems with other dash & steering wheel components, which are silver in color. The PCM faceplate would be better in body color than the stock volcano gray, but will need careful removal & remount. The door finishers(plate around opener, closing handle & bin cover) can also be painted to match. I think everything but the instrument surround is a factory option at considerable expense.
Be prepared to spend mightily for this work and please be carefull with the total look, so it is coordinated whole and not mismatched.

the guy at the body shop said if the face can be takin in a parts it's going to be easy but he deosn't want to take the pcm out after that he cant open the face
I talked to Eric (Plug Guy) about modifying the PCM faceplate - either leather or painted - and he notes that on the 2007 it cannot be done (at least my impression is that it cannot be done well enough since ANYthing is a possibility).
