Default sport pedal pics

hey just installed the sport pedals so figured i'd share a few pics.
i love how they feel and didn't have any slippage whatsoever.

they were kindv a pain to install as the pieces didn't fit perfectly.
the brake and dead rest were fine but the E brake you couldn't get both holes properly fitted on the actual pedal so its not as perfect and tight as it would ideally be.
however since i literally never use the e brake it wasn't a big deal.
the gas pedal also was a lil bit of a hassle getting on but overall not an issue.

i think they look and feel great!

They look good. Much better then stock. I think the gas pedal is a hair too small as the orig pedal shows from behind. Brake pedal looks perfect. i also think they shoulda recessed the screws and provided rubber caps to cover them. or used black screws.

FWIW- black floor mats would complement that area nicely. Its impossible to keep those gray ones clean.

Looks good, but is your gas pedal damaged on the lower left side? Something looks out of whack in the pics. Nice mod, as long as it doesn't make the pedal more slippery, and from what another member said, they increase grip so thumbs up.

ya agree 100% I was actually just telling my girl I thought it would look so much better if the whole carpet was black.
I'm going to email the seller about the gas pedal and include a pic n see what he says. going to Vegas for a month so prolly won't get around to replacing it till I get back. speaking of which if anyone knows a good tint place in Vegas I'm thinking seriously about going darker all around so any recs greatly appreciated.

cheers.

I actually felt I got slightly more grip but could just be the placebo effect. n ya I noticed the gas pedal issue as well, def checking into that.

cheers.

tucker21:
Your pedals looks goods.
You should get black carpet. The contrast look s good with the pedal and less dirty too.


I got the same ones. The installation was pretty easy except the the e-brake. You had too drill through the metal. For the brakes, I just put double sided tape to hold it where you wanted and drill the holes and put the screws in. For the gas pedal I just took it off the car, it's easier that way than double sided tape in place than drill and screw. You do have a better feel and grip too. Anyways, here's how it looks with black carpet.

All you need is a phone cable, and a female to female extender. Run the phone cable from the visor, down the pillar, under your steering wheel column, down the center console. Plug the phone cable into one end of the extender and your passport table into the other side. Use the outlet in your center console.
Let me know if you need pics

so you actually have to drill into the metal parts that the original rubber grips wrap around?
I am having a hard time installing these... only got the foot rest installed =/
