"AMG" Aluminum pedals?

Anyone buy these? I just bought a set thru ebay and should have them next week. Any pictures of them installed?
I do remember seeing one picture a while back but cannot locate the post.

Here's a pic of the set I bought:

Those aren't authentic but I would love to see some pix too. They have the same pedals w/ Brabus and Lorinser logos too.

if aesthetics is all you are concerned about, it doesn't matter if it is authentic of imitation/replica. I think they are a nice upgrade for the minimal price.

But i think those rubber grips won't last very long... slippery when wet

They are actually copies of the BMW AC Schnitzer pedals. As mentioned, they aren't authentic, but it is tough to have authentic pedals when there aren't any made... I think they look pretty good! Let us know when you have them installed.

.........Very few of the aesthetic improvements such as door handle frames, carbon fiber interiors etc are actually made by the major tunners, yet look quite nice if done tastefully. Below is a pic of my non-authentic Lorinser pedals. At the time, I bought it from German ebay thinking it was authentic, but I like it regardless.

Ted,
Yours were the pics I've seen before that sold me on these. Although mine have a different logo, they appear to be the same pedals. Very nice!

btw, how are the rubber grips?

mike, those are my favorite knock-offs... when you get them, can you let me know if those Brabus emblems are just sticker/decals or are they etched into the metal itself?

Thanks!

Ill definitely let you know. I hope they are just tickers cause if they are im just gunna take the pictures off so I dont have to deal with people asking me what the B on the pedals are for.

I will also post pics when done. My 98clk is looking more and more like a 2002 430 everyday. lol

Although I also like those pedals, I was thinking the same thing so I didn't get the "Brabus" pedals.

It would be really nice to have a dead pedal though.......
