Acc.Pedal
My take on the aluminium throttle pedal. Made from 4mm thick alu stock during yet another rainy day here in Sweden....
At the top it is approx 5mm wider than the original pedal tapering off to original pedal with at the base. The height is adjustable by shims between the original pedal and the alu piece. To prevent pinching the carpet the pedal does not extend all the way down to the floor. The anti-slip tape is someting I read about in a post made by Geoffery. Heel and toeing is improved!!
Sorry about the poor pic.

Nice fabrication. I also shimmed mine up about 1/2", to bring it closer to the height of the brake pedal. I used a better bodies pedal, which is wider at the top, and screwed it through the shim, to the original accelerator pedal.
