Group buy pricing on these is $65 for polished finish and $90 for Matte finish (pictured). I'll find out how many we need....

Those will require you to take off the existing pedal pads and drill into the metal underneath. If you don't mind doing that, fine. Otherwise there are tons of aftermarket pedals out there, you should be able to find a set you like from any number of online parts shops.

can you suggest a good one that you don't need to drill and won't be a fortune?

Correct, these require drilling. But IMO this is the safest way to do this. I had Razo pedals on my old 300ZX and the brackets sucked.

I've had these pedals on two cars and personally I love the matte finish. Quality is excellent. The polished finish is also nice ($65) but some think it's too shiney...

I had a set of Razo Magnesium pedals and while the brackets are a bit tricky to get installed properly, they never gave me any problems. As long as you make sure to tighten the bolts that hold them on every once in a while they will stay put just fine. Usually you can get a set of them for like 30-40 bucks or so from most online stores.



Some starting points to look at stuff:

Razo
Momo
Sparco

That should provide plenty of choices.

thanks, how were they when it rains? I had a pair of the alumium pedals and they were slippery as hell.

Default grippy...

The pedals from autovation are pretty grippy in the wet. They've got sharp raised edges that work pretty well. I'll ask Tony to start a GB on these. Should we start a new post or something?
