How do I make it that instead of using the shape's color for the bevel (grey), it uses the image inside it as a base? I want to make the bevel like in the original (the bevel is using the image as a color)

Use "Map Art"

But frankly, it might just be a better solution, to expand the 3D object, delete what you don't want, and then overlay it on a clipping mask with the image inside text.

Sadly, "Map Art" doesn't produce any different results.

About the second option, can you elaborate more? I'm still learning Illustrator and if I'm much more advanced in Photoshop. Sadly there, the bevel edges are not sharp as in Illustrator.

The other option is to use Object > Expand appearance. This will produce some really complex kind of artwork consisting of groups and subgroups and clipping masks and stuff.

You need to delete the inner fill of that and then overlay it on a second version of that text with the image in it.
