Default sports package pedals - or others

I think that Lexus is now selling the complete gas pedal unit so it costs like $200. The up side is you don't have to mess with hammer and press in the pin and stuff.

Any other alternatives out there the plain plastic rubber pedals look horrid. Razo or something..
Metal pedals should be standard.

So now what? Youre looking at like spending 200 bucks for the new gas pedal assembly AND probably 100 more bucks for the dead pedal and brake? Man that is WAY too much money for something YOU will barely ever see let alone NO ONE ELSE unless you make your passenger stick their head down there to look!

It is not hard to remove the pedal. I ratter not mess with the internal springs in the assembly. Beside, that is WAY too much money!

I agree, the sport pedals are now waaay overpriced because of the gas pedal being sold as an entire assembly, but people do notice them. I can't tell you how many "non-car people" give me compliments on my "metal pedals" when they look at my car.
