I want to replace/remodel the dash, the stearing wheel, the glove box, and the gear shifter of my car. Are there places to by parts for this? Can I go somewhere to get this done? How expensive would this be?

Impractical. Such things are normally only done with classic cars or hotrods. Making a dashboard would be an expensive engineering proposition.
The outlay involved in building a custom car can cost more than cost of several new cars.
What @tyrantxseries says. Also, go visit various places like O’Reilly’s and Auto Zone to see what simple things are out there.
You can also look into reupholstering the car (get a bid from a car upholstery shop) or getting a new roof liner put in (I had to do that, and it cost me about $100 but could go higher depending on what fabric or finish you choose).
I would normally take it to the body shop :).
