After tackling many themes on my grand prix white widebody (and before posting extensively on the whole car) , i need to take care of the interior, next theme will be the pedals, as the theme is rather black ( a lot) white ( a little) and some yellow accents (brake calipers, door latches)
a black fire extenguisher and black mounts will follow which makes me want to go for black pedals (Rennline?)
would you share with me your pedal concepts ?
cheers!
Looks nice so far. I like the integrated roll cage nicely done.
The problem with black pedals is they will get scuffed and the silver will show through eventually. If you go black make sure you get the pedals with the rubber pads to keep them looking good.

thank you, still lots to do, will go soon in detail, thank you for your advice, i was thinking of either eroding lightly ( controlling wear) the offsetted grip elements (like you see on black valve covers on some exotic italian brands) or as you suggested the rubber pads to protect the integrity of the black pedals.
I'm sure whatever you do will be nice. I wouldn't touch them until they show signs of wear though. Once they get marked you can always do it then.
I have a black interior rather spartan on my track car but I wasn't even going to do an interior until my wife said she wouldn't drive it unless it looked nice and had an interior.
I am using the rennline fully adjustable silver pedals/dead pedal and silver mats with rothsport silver shifter. I figured I needed some brightness to offset the black. You have the yellow and white to break it up.
Still working on it. Added an AEM dual wideband O2 and working on some other controls. But track duty only
Interior looks great. Love the stitching on the seats and the white seat backs.
All of my rennline floorboards and pedals are showing serious signs of wear. Despite living the all black look, I might go with silver if/when I replace mine. Something to consider.

Germans would say that you have a great work place! Great set up!
i like your concept of having the comands contrasted in silver.
Siver black is such a professional tool atmosphere, i like it, still not made up my mind whether black or silver as each one is great.
was wondering if i could check the material for possible grey anodizing

yes , on one side, pedals with signs of wear are like a professiona tool showing patina, i will try if anodizing works or pvd based on pedal material
Also, I see the accelerator pedal can be adjusted in its height/length, I presume you can also adjust how far it stands forward/back? I mean in order to bring it to a desired height with the brake pedal.

Throttle is completely adjustable both in spacing, height and distance from the floor. I faffed around for about an hour or so pulling the old throttle pedal, drilling the brake and clutch and setting everything up. I did mine at the same time I updated the pedal box so a bit of extra work was involved.includi g the floorboard.
If you use the recommended baseline setti g then it will get you pretty close. I only required a minimal adjustment to get the heel toe position to my liking.
