i did mine in valour. roof lining, rear and front seats and im about to do the doors, dash and rear pastle shelf too. you can get it from warehouses where the trimmers get it from. they also will sell small amounts. i got my stuff from either nolan warehouses in perth centre or Upolstering Distributors Australia in Welshpool. i found Nolans to be a bit cheaper and it also was a bit closer but i only found out of them when i finished getting my material. material cost around 30bux a metre and are over a meter wide. bit expencive but worth its worth the price as its the proper stuff to youse and wont ware out. and also comes with the foam backing you need. but yeah as mazza said you can prob get it anywhere. just depends what you want and how much your willing to spend. ill get some pics for you but ask some of the boys. theve seen it
