Full set of FC aluminum pedals!

https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...72#post1225272

Check em out.......

I recieved a set of these yesterday and man they are nice. Easy to install and are not coming off unless i take them off. If you are putting any type of chrome or aluminum in your car these will go perfect with em. I dont have any other aluminum stuff in my car and they still look great!

Is your car a daily driver? If so, have you had a chance to drive it during a rainy day? Did they slip at all? I am concerned about winter driving with those pedals...I don't want my muddy boot to slip off at an inconvenient moment!

Please post a pic.
thanks
EDIT-Just saw the pix you posted in the "parts" section. They look real good! Is it just me though (optical illusion) but do they look a little crooked, particularly the clutch and brake pedals.

Yo,

(repost from original for sale thread)

I just installed my set. Here are some thoughts:

1. Awesome packaging. Emery even put masking tape over each individual pedal so they would not get scratched in shipping.

2. Finish. No rough edges, top quality work. I ordered the bead blasted finish. It's more of a emery board/fingernail file feel to it. I don't see any problem with slippage. I will keep you updated if I encounter any slipping.

3. Instructions. Yep, a 2 page instruction sheet with /pictures/. Very clear and concise.

4. Hardware. Stainless steel screws and some top quality dohickeys.

4. Installation. Very easy if you follow the instructions. I was vexed at one point on the brake and clutch pedal adapters, then duh, I read the instructions. Black side facing towards you. Oh, he painted them black so I couldn't screw up the install. Nice. It took me about 15 minutes.

5. Appearance. They look fantastic. I used electrical tape on the clutch and brake pedals instead of painting them black for contrast. The bead blasted finish matches the pedal's arms perfectly, they look like they're made from one piece. It looks like an FD pedal set.

6. Function. This pedals /do not move/. No slop at all in any of the pedals. I tried yanking them around...again...no play at all. Awesome.

I will give you a road test tomorrow, but for now...I'm completely satisfied with my purchase. The Sparco Grip pedal set I bought cost me $50...for a measly extra $25 I get a custom made, custom fitted top quality pedal set made specifically for the FC.

I also believe they are better made vs. the stamped/cast Sparco pedals. I encourage any one reading this to buy a set. You get to support a great guy and get a great product in return.

Thanks much Emery, by far the best $75 I've ever spent on my car.
