Faded interior door panels on RMW

I had the front doors completely stripped because I swapped the '94 doors out to get the 96 mirrors. As long as everything was apart, I replaced the window sliders, and I am using the best collection of parts from the old and new interior door panels. I have 2 questions on restoring them though-

1) The blue plastic/ vinyl is sun-faded. Is there a cool way to restore the surface color without the vinyl/fabric dye? I do have a can from when I installed the Blazer center console, but I am lazy so I'm trying to avoid all that work.

2) What is the cool fix for all the worn edges on the black paint on the switch panel? I don't want to lose all the factory white lettering. I do have a laser engraver at the shop, so if absolutely necessary I could paint the panels and then re-letter them, but again, lazy. If there is an easier way I am open to it.

Thoughts?

After having Blue Roadmaster wagons for 23 years and having to work on door panels more times then I can remember this is what I would do to fix the sun fading, actually there probably is only one fix and that is to use SEM.

Order Custom Mix: Medium Dark Adriatic Blue #4820 comes in a 12 oz spray can. It is a perfect match for the blue interior. It's not cheap, I think it's about $25 a can. Shipping is around $15. I usually order two cans as the shipping is about the same for two as one. Best stuff on the market and you only have to do it once. You may need a prep solvent that they sell also. But you may have something that works as good.

There was someone on the Caddy forum, who said this is a very good match, also a SEM product, but not a custom mix. Might be a cheaper fix, but I have never tried.
