Default info on EBAY SPORT PEDALS

I'm not really willing to pay 150 dollars for f-sport pedals and as i was searching for deals i found these...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/LEXUS...ht_2794wt_1146

I was hoping someone could supply some info or their experience with these. Thanks.

The stock aluminum feels better. Of course it's a PITA to knock off the gas pedal pin buy it's a nice upgrade.
I still imagine how better the black aluminum sport pedal would look like.

I wouldn't get the one with F-Sport... simply becuz F-Sport doesn't make racing pedals. It spells RICE. I rather get the one with Lexus logo. Plus, I believe you need to drill into the factory pedals to install.

Why not buy Razo? I didn't like the OEM Sport Pedals or the eBay... I was never a fan of pedals with rubber stubs. I always loved the sport pedals on the 2000 Toyota Celica. I went with the Razo Formula Spec which looks pretty close to Celica. No drilling required for Razo, it comes with universal mounting brackets. Only footrest require drilling.

Wife and I love the Razo Formula Spec pedals which I installed.

Here's a picture without the footrest installed on my car.

These are the Lexus sport pedals. They came with the F Sport pkg on my 2011.

You really can get what you want. Some will like and others will hate. Ad far as grip, you won't know till you use them. Cheap though.

I have those pedals. I like them. Even my wife likes them. They are grippy as the rubber does protrude quite a bit. Only downside is that drilling is required and its hard to reach everything down there.

Those eBay pedals are certainly not F-Sport pedals nor does Lexus have anything to do with them. Can you say counterfeit. I have officially turned down the 2011 pedal and ECM retrofit. BTW, IMHO, anyone with Lexus aluminum pedals should have this:
