As part of the interior colour change, I did a small job (about 20 minutes) which makes a big difference. Pinchweld is the stuff which goes around the doors to create a nice finish.
I bought 6 metres of the stuff from a Holden Spares Store on eBay (again!) for about $30. If you are planning on changing your pinchweld, it's best to buy new, as once it's been on the car for a while it retains the shape.
The before and after pictures are shown below.

The only other tip I have is that the pinchweld has small metal hoops embedded all the way along - which are used to clamp onto the edge when you push it on. When you cut the pinchweld, it's so much simpler if you cut between the metal hoops!
Also, I used a rubber mallet to ensure that the pinchweld was on tight.
