No. I made my own kit for $60 with 3M Di-Noc carbon fiber. I'd highly suggest looking into it as it'll probably look better and will cost a fraction of the price. Pics-

More then likely. You can remove the bins by removing the middle console, then removing the trays independently...there's about 3 screws, per tray, per side or so. The door cover has 2 smaller screws which are located in the top of the tray, then remove the cover by pulling from the top to release the bottom latches.

Crappy shot of my pic

Nope! Didn't remove a single thing. The Di-Noc is a vinyl that forms to things with heat. So I cut out pieces slightly larger than the area I wanted to cover, stuck them on, used a hair dryer to mold them to that piece, cut with a razor blade. Really straight forward.

Didn't use templates! All cuts were made with a razor blade.
