Building materials
Thermo-lite
XPS foam / FRP Skins
Aligloss - bendable and very glossy
Quickboard ceiling liner
8020 framing 25-30mm home made aluminum brackets using nylock nuts.
8020 series 10 is the most light weight
Burmese teak for shower floor

Self adhesive felt in cab area over bare metal will look good.
Insulation notes
Ridgid styrofoam, such as Dowboard, is a good alternative to spray foam
But whatever insulation you use, you should never let it come in contact with the sheet metal.
It's pretty important to leave a little bit of an airspace in order to mitigate condensation moisture.
I love using a product called Delta-Floor up against the metal first.
It keeps the insulation from touch and provides awesome airflow in your wall cavity
You can stick it on with plain ol' duct tape. It's available through any home center or lumberyard.
Smart vapor barrier
Use XPS blocks+havelock
Loctite PL to glue XPS foam
Sikkflex 221 wood to metal
PL 300 foam to wood or metal
Stainless screw grade:
Cheap A2 grade probably, Iv had that problem many times, now I spend a little extra on the A4 Marine Grade and not had a rust issue since

Wall finishes - I think real textures are better than vinyl prints.
