I actually don't mind the new one lol. When I had the recall done, the dealership was about to put a normal pedal instead of replacing it with the sport one. I do think it looks a bit dinky compared to the old one, however
Well that's certainly hard to argue with.... since unlike my post, based on reality and actual facts, it contains a total of 0 actual information.
Anyway, the OP will probably need to call around to junkyards, I suspect most online junkyard systems won't distinguish fine enough detail to judge if they have the correct, old, sport pedal or not.
^^ Have you actually compared the two side by side. The pedals are the same length. Only on the post-recall, the bottom corners are tapered 45 degrees.
The pedals are the same length, however in addition to the 45 degree taper on the bottom sides, the pin that holds it to the rod is also in a different position, which also moves the pedal upwards away from the floor.

Angled it more due the problem of user error. Still, it's fixing something that wasn't broken, just as a precaution. Some people need to relax and not be so paranoid that something bad is going to happen if they skip the recall. In my case, I had half the recall performed. My IS350 already has the new brake override firmware.
In Canada at least, the offered customers the option to opt out of any part of the recall, while I don't believe that was an "official" option/position offered by Lexus USA.
I had an old sport pedal I had bought years ago lying around, so when I got my 2011, I put in the old-spec one. I like it. Lexus dealer has never given me any grief about it, and since my car is a 2011, it hasn't had any recalls either, so it's never come up.
