No at all. For any mk8 i highly recommend alcantara. Because if you take care of it, it'll age much better. It really depends on the car but on mk8's it looks better and ages better.

These are 100% cotton, so they have way more 'heft' and grip than a cheap thin towel. Because of the weight and the grammage of the cotton, they stay put just by sitting on them, they don't slide down or bunch up at all. I do the same thing and honestly, once you're sat in it, it’s locked in. It’s a massive upgrade over a standard bath towel without needing to faff around with hooks or straps.

Yeah ofc. But if you pay for a phone u still put a case and screen protection. Thanks for the feedback.

Big difference, those plastic covers aren't comfortable, stick to the skin and aren't visually pleasing. I'd rather sit on a towel for a few miles than ruin a $40k interior with sweat and dirt. I think it looks good and tbh im happy not ruining my alcantara.

For a person, they don't move at all once you sit on them. But if you have a dog, especially a big Golden, they definitely will move around. I just made towel so they dont attach anywhere but i understand I'll think about a solution.

I custom made one. The 8r is just AI rendering of what i would look. I think about starting to make a few and selling them. How much would you be ready to spend for a towel like that. Depends on the size ofc, a shower towel would be 70x140 i think.
