ive got those pedals, the grip on the clutch pedal gets worn out really quickly just from frequent usage so it just goes to bare metal, the brake and accelerator pedal stay in good condition though

I got the pedals too and i dare say it looks sweet in the car. Even my fren owning a big ugly soap box racer commented it looks sweet. I've had it for a year already and so far no problems with it wearing out.

They dont bend enough. As much as i loosen them they were way too tight to go around and be safely attached to the pedal.

How did u put them on? Mine fitted just rite and they never came loose. I used a pair of pliers and cloth to clamp it in.

I took the rubber things off the pedals then put the new ones over them and bent the bracket thing aroud the pedal. But instead of it going on and looking good, the whole thing just bent heeps and broke so i threw them at the wall then in the bin.

Hmmm....ok. I just clamped the metal tingy around my pedals tats all. Din come loose even thought till today.Some ppl thought the pedals came with the car. Lolz

I tink I know what you did, u loosen the screws and tried to slide it in didnt u? I thought it was the rite way but in fact, the 4 metal strips poking out are supposed to bend round the back to the pedal.
