Nice look Jason. Aftermarket or genuine?

Worth it in what way?

I don't even recall what the pedals look like on 99% of the vehicles I have owned. Tells you how much some people like me look down there

I have aftermarket from ebay, and like it as it has the dead pedal insert as well. But yeah, can't get the ebrake piece doesn't fit. I'm thinking I might be able to figure something out with dobule-stick trim tape, but don't have high hopes...

I just think it was cool how such a simple mod really changes the look with all the alum/silver inside. I also noticed for the first time that the puddle light at night - lights the pedals up. Never noticed it before on the black pedals.

Yea, I when I was looking I noticed that the ebrake one was shaped different on back, so went with OEM. Any pics of deal pedal?

Here's the cheapie set (~$20 shipped) with dead pedal. Like I mentioned, trying to come up with an option for the e-brake cover. Had it installed by one bolt, but it rotated around it. Thinking maybe that + double stick might hold it. I bet over time it would shift though.

I bought the OEM ones right after I got the GL. The buttons/pads are already worn down. Not impressed. But they do look great! I installed the brake and go pedal only. Ebrake is still in the plastic.
