The already came with aftermarket ones.. my friend has some Mugen pedals in his DC2 and they grip like crazy. Like a skateboard's griptape.... speaking of which I think I might do that..

I've got some Autozone pedal covers that I bought after I worked at McDonalds and the bottom of my shoes would be greasy and slippery. I think they looked pretty good for being cheap.

That Is a temporary solution to having them fall off of the dash. Some one was supposed to make me some custom fiberglass gauge pods, but I could never get a hold of him.
The car's not rice at all, well I don't think so.

Back on topic. The pedals cost me probably $10 and actually grip very well. The holes are more like this for texture.

The holes pushed through from the underside of the petals create grip.

Well there are TONS of peddle covers all over the place but you can go to an online store like andysautosport.com and order some. As far as the gauges go, glowshifts universal pillar pod fits really well!

I had a set of pedals for my FD from this company and they are by far the best pedals I have used.
