Need new pedals

I was lookin' for some new pedals for the FC. Any ideas?

http://www.247motoring.com/shop/shop...nt=247Motoring

I found these, but I don't want to buy a large size or something like that, so I was wondering if any FC owners out there changed their pedals, and if so please post suggestions. Thanks!

be careful if they are just new ones that cover the old ones screws like to get stuck in the carpet happened to a buddy of mine he hit a wall when the gas pedal stuck in the floor. so if u get some make sure to cut the screws off on the back.

I have some cheapy ones which I got for free basically (long story short, ordered a Momo set, the company shut down a little after my order but without charging me, sent me 2 cheap pedal sets for free).

I've never had issues with them sitting to the carpet or anything and they have been with me many times on road courses. I don't really like them or the color, so I plan to change them out fairly soon.

I don't think anyone would want them. lol... You can kind of see them here:

They work well, just not a complementing color for my interior (or any interior I can think of... ).

Make sure you get the red and black autozone Type-R floor mats to go with them.

Well, for the uninformed, the pedal covers can aid in using techniques like Heel/toe. If you notice with my car, the brake cover is angled and moved closer to the gas pedal. While it's possible to do the technique without the covers, they do help in this and other situations.

It will just chip off. Something which takes that kind of abuse, painting isn't going to last. They are functional, and that's all I needed at the time. I put those on back in 2002 but just never bothered to change them out.

I'm looking for some aftermarket pedals too, ones that replace the stock ones. Not ones that stick on.
