Adding more leather and alcantara inside.
Sadly my "new" (green) S8 has been subject to aggressive cleaning that has made the alcantara on the door panels all furry (and worse). 
I knew this when I bought it by the way, factored into the price. 
So I'm finally getting round to thinking of paying a trimmer to replace/recover the (8) offending areas.
Then I started thinking about covering up some of the plastics with leather or alcantara. That's mostly the dashboard and top of the doors though I'm sure there are other bits if I look.
My interior is the Twist beige (WJ, Papyrus combo) Thoughts anyone, what and where? 
Funds are not unlimited, but.....
