Not my style, but blue is my favorite color, and you've got a manual, so it's all good. Haha. They just look like they're just form and not function though. Do the provide any extra grip or anything?

yeah, those black rings come seperatly from the pedals.. and they're optional to put on.. without em though they would be very slick. i put em on, and they give a good grip on whatever shoes you got. they're not bad.. i like em

For safety (and to help facilitate heel/toe) - You wanna have the grips on the Clutch and Brake, and keep the Accelerator "slippery". Looks nice! Good job.
Just got mine done recently too.

You can pick one up at Corsport or StrutKing.com for $40
You can also buy the complete set for manual (4 pedals) or auto (3 pedals)for $89, if you want. Free Shipping.
I got a good deal on the Mugen Pedals at the dealership ($100) and paired it with the dead pedal. They match pretty well.

ok cool, thanks for the tip, i can pop the little rings out of the gas pedal so it's the right way. the pedals were a pain in the butt putting them on.. but oh well, i did it, and im glad i did
there was another set that i could have gotten that had a dummy pedal to match like yours, but it was a different style and it didnt look like it'd fit mine.. im gonna be on the look out for one of those now.. or leave it.. i dunno yet..
thank you though!!

No problem. It's pretty cool to see a girl enthusiast. Pretty rare. Enclosed an illustration of some heel/toe tips. If you don't autocross or track, you should do at lower speeds (at first) and with no other traffic around.

Re: Got some pedal covers! What ya think?
i'm not sure how your pedels attach but mine slip off maybe twice a year, and if you crank em down the pressure can cause the rubber to pop out, if you were nice shoes then the flat surface without the rubber is dangerous, i'd keep all the rings in unless your always wearing sneakers.
as well the metal wears away into a sharp edge after a year...long story short my beautiful aldo's now have huge wholes in them, so watchout for your nice shoes.

Lookin good! Looks like they match pretty nicely, as well. Do you have a build thread going? You should definitely start posting a lot more pictures. I don't think I've even seen the outside of your car yet...
And, I totally feel like a sissy for driving an auto...

I consider auto as slow vehicle, if you want fast car... Than use manual transmission..

yeah, i decided to keep the rings on cuz they are super slick without em.. and while i do usually wear sneakers or flip flops, i do occasionally wear the "lady shoes" haha.. so dont wanna have to change em out every time i drive. so they will stay put how they are.
thanks for lettin me know about all that tho

Nope, i dont have a build thread goin.. i dont know how to start something like that. I'd like to instead of just posting new threads of what i am doing every now and then. And nope, u havent seen the outside of my car yet bc i still havent done a "photoshoot" with it. i think it's gonna be nice tomorrow, if it is, ill clean and shine her up and take some pics. Maybe you could let me know how to start that build thread thing and ill do that too..
dont feel like a sissy.. half the time im jealous of the autos.. yeah, sticks are good for a few things (that sounds bad but u get what im sayin ), but they can also be a pain. especially in stop and go traffic. i do love smokin people at red lights tho cant get enough of that.. lol
