Cool Parts and supplies

I recently bought a 23 ft. Safari SE, 07 model. We love the trailer, but I am suprised at how limited the customization parts seem to be. I have ridden Harley's for 40 years, and the factory and thousands of after market suppliers are looking to sell you things to individualize your bike. Airstreams seem to be different, or am I looking in the wrong place?

For example, the 09 models have fold down panels on the counter that extend the working space. I would love to locate one to match my counter tops. Is the only option to get them through a dealer? (It seems that most dealers only have Airstreams as one small part of their operation, and thusly, not a large parts department) Likewise, the spice rack above the stove on the new models is great, but I don't see where it is offered. Parts for other RV's don't necessarily work, the curve of the Airstream being unique.

I would appreciate any feedback regarding good sources of customization parts and/or accessories. Thanks to anyone who can help or has ideas.

Here is a list of some places, people you can consider. Don't know if they fit for what you are looking for, but at least you will have some to start from for further inquiry. Also, if you go into the forums area, you might find a thread under interior restoration that will give you more ideas. Good luck.
