Is this even possible?

Here's the story. Just bought a house, only 7 yrs old but rode hard if you know what I mean. We're replacing some of the appliances outright with KitchenAid Stainless Steel. The existing refer is a built in with the matching cabinet doors, which are also hammered. These built in refers are heck of expensive and the one we have works great, just looks like crap.

Can the doors be retrofitted with the stainless steel doors skins with all the trimmings? If so where do I start? I can't find any info in parts lists. Are complete doors an option?

Seeking expert or even non expert advise,
Thanks

Here are your parts
Parts for Whirlpool KBFO42FSX00 Refrigerator - AppliancePartsPros.com

Here are the parts for a KBFC42FSS00.

This looks like the same unit as yours but with stainless covers.
Note that I am guessing on this and am not sure.
You would have to check the two parts lists to be sure that they are the same and then get the parts that are missing from your unit to add the skins.

Also by the look of it the skin for the freezer door s not available.

The links were some of the places I looked. Thanks.

I also did some other digging and think I found a possible solution. I checked parts for refer model KBFC42FTS which looks to be the same basic refer in stainless. If I'm right, then it can be done. I'm off to dig around the interwebs to confirm.
