Got my set on Friday. Opening the well-protected container, I understand why the pedals are expensive. They are a work of art and the quality and design are amazing. It is almost a shame to stomp on these. Installation was easy, and the feel (larger brake pedal and smoother weighted gas pedal) was good. Customer service was awesome as I tend to ask a lot of questions before installation.

would be interested to know the advantage of these compared to the OEM aluminum pedal option P19.

There is no advantage to the OEM Aluminum pedals over the OEM Stock pedals other than that they look better. They are still rubber slip ons and they gas pedal is still plastic. Our pedals are going to give you better grip, look much cleaner, and our gas pedal is going to give you a smoother action because of our bearings inside our gas pedal mechanism along with it reducing play due to it being 100% billet aluminum!

thank you - always a plus to have the vendor’s positive view of their own product - with or without objective data.

Not sure if that was sarcasm or not, but it is an objective fact that there is no functional advantage to the OEM Aluminum Pedals other than that they look better. We wondered the same thing seeing that they were a $500 option and found out they mount on the exact same as the regular stock black pedals, just with rubber and plastic mounts.

the comment was not meant in any way to be critical or negative to any degree - without objective data, there is no basis for that.
but in any case, objective data would be helpful:
relative friction/slip coefficient of the pedal surfaces, rigidity, and rotational resistance.
ps - the OEM option is more expensive ($600+ as I recall)

Yes you are correct and do bring up some great points, performing a handful of tests to receive the coefficient of friction (both static and dynamic) between our pedals and a common rubber soled shoe could be done to give a more supportive numerical value. But just off some observation it would seem that our hex design provides more grip than the stock plastic one or the OEM aluminum pedal due to the edges of the hex's that would catch grip on your shoe. But we will definitely look into doing some of those tests to provide you with more information! And for rigidity, our pedal is 8mm thick billet aluminum (very rigid) compared to plastic pedals. It would take Hulk himself to bend these pedals LOL. And the rotational resistance of a ball bearing in comparison to a plastic that is being bent is incomparable.

Spend some time in the 992 area and enjoy more posts like that.

OP, did you have any issues installing the brake pedal? I just ordered a set and when I was trying to install the brake pedal I noticed there is a gap between the back plate and the front pedal. I wonder if this is just an issue with the 992? In the Numeric video it shows a tight fit for the 991...
The pedal is a tight fit. But the gap will close once it is on there. Put the top screws in with just a few threads. Then squeeze the bottom together. It is easier with a clamp with rubber faces so it does not scratch the pedals. Then put the middle screws in and tighten it as much as you can without stripping the screw. Finally put the bottom ones in.
