Always thought the Car could with a bit of brightening up in the foot well dept, so a look around eBay I found these :)

I found the pedals advertised for $19.99 Australian Dollars. So two weeks later they arrived in the UK :)

The billet side sills came from Sullivan racing products (USA)
The sills use two screws either end to hold them in place, I used some double sided tape to hold down the middle section :2tu: These sills lay on top of the original black plastic ones and use the same holes for mounting so there is no damage to the original sill

Sorry about the scuff mark on the black outer door sill :rolleyes: I forgot to wipe the sill before I took the pics :D

Nice, but I would also like something that covered and kept the outside black portion (the one you forgot to wipe) in good condition without using anything that may damage the original.

How is the feel of the foot pedals? They look great.

Pedals feel fine, (must remember to wipe feet now), Had to drill through the OEM Plastic Accelerator pedal to fix screws and chop off the top and lower edge but I reckon it was worth it :2tu: The other two pedals go over the top of the existing rubber pads an are held in place by metal fingers that tighten up underneath when turning the screws.

As for the Outer side sill, I'm working on that ;) I cant make up my mind what to go with, I think if I was to add another brushed Alli door sill with Viper on it, it might be overdoing it with logos :dunno:
I was thinking along the lines of a Carbon Fibre sill? Any thoughts?

I have the same brushed aluminum inner sill you have. I went with a plain carbon fiber outer sill from zero altitude flight cause I thought the same as you: too many logos. ZAF is pricey but nice and high quality.

I'll do that today for ya.:2tu: Standby to standby.

Here ya go. My brushed sill is slightly different. Screws in all existing screw holes, even in the center, and the logo seems to be spot on. I got it from Daves Big Brakes some time ago tho. I like the looks of the plain carbon fiber. Otherwise, you're right: too many logos. Good luck.

Mark, those inner sills look great. If you get the outers, would love to see those too. Nice job.

Did pedals on my GTS a few months ago. Plainer than yours but a nice project in that it is not too tough. Note my blue asparagus rubber band to keep the throttle pedal quite when my foot is off it during decceleration.

Yes when I was using the search engine I found the link to your pedal install, I saw my ones on eBay and liked the Fast Red Racing logo, I reckon that will add another 3 BHP :rolaugh:
