You get panels from a wrecking yard (or EBAY dismantler) and swap them out. Hopefully matching color and equal or better condition. They might come with the speakers themselves, but you only want the "box" that the speakers are mounted to anyway. And then you have to run wires there. Finally you get to put in the speakers themselves. Ballpark figure...$1,000 and a fair amount of time and effort.

That's for a "factory" look - there are other ways to mount aftermarket speakers that are much lesss involved.
