Haha..."like Janet if you're NASTY!"

I have my set of OEM aluminum sports pedals, but I have yet to slap those puppies on (I don't have those kind of tools). I am going in for 5k service in the next couple weeks, so I'll just have the stealership do it.

They look great on your car!

Only special tool you need is a punch tool for the pin and angle adapter.

Most standard MM ratchet sets should be sufficient.

Um...yeah, the only tools I own are screwdrivers (which reminds me I'm almost out of Vodka).

Do the sport pedals provide better grip? Or is it just for looks?

They weren't too bad. I bought them from Sewell using their promo code fro $155 + shipping. Here's the link.

I installed them myself so it was free!

It should've only taken me about an hour for the job. There's a nice DIY found on the forum here. Remember to use a 3/8" wrench + angle adapter and not the 1/2" wrench.

I think they provide a better grip. I got mine installed last week and tested them out when I was wearing high heels, and my foot slipped less compare to the plain rubber pedals. I love the way the look!
