aluminum sport pedals

Drifting
Unfortunately, a filthy carpet is the least of my problems at this point... my 20 year old son did this to my Cayenne S on Friday afternoon. Nobody was hurt- thank God - but the interior cleaning will have to wait a few weeks until I get it back from the body shop

This was definitely a teachable moment for both boys, and a relatively cheap education of the power of these impressive machines. And yes - my son WILL be paying the deductible on this claim as a first step in his peneance, to be followed up with years of merciless reminders of this

Then I installed the dead pedal. I didn't have a factory dead pedal so this alone was a vast improvement
Then I had to drill through the metal brake pedal and the plastic gas pedal to thread the Allen-head bolts through the pedal, secured with a simple nut at the back.
All in, this took ~30 min, only because my beat-up drill bits struggled to get through the metal brake pedal. Now that I've got these installed, I am really pleased with the result as these were an impulse purchase from a Chinese seller on EBay and I wasn't sure I was gonna like 'em. But here's the final result, which I figure looks pretty dang good for a $24 pedal set

The 2 o'clock nuts are a pain on both gas and brake pedals. Fussed with the brake pedal for a while.
Gas pedal drilled holes on the aluminum pedals are too close together so i can only secure a nut on the 11 o'clock hole.
All in all, a good deal for $24 or $26 shipped..

Me as well. Wanted the pedals without "cayenne" script but it was not available.

Those look awesome on your beige interior. And IMHO, the dead pedal alone is worth the $24! For what it's worth, I had the same problem with the gas pedal attachment so I sourced longer socket cap screws that gave me enough room to attach the nuts behind the gas pedal to keep it 100% secure. Take a look at post #27 on this thread if you're going that direction...
Congrats on the new look, I think it's a huge upgrade. So far, mine have worn really well, not even a scratch or any signs of wear!

North Shore 911: i purchased the Cayenne pedals after finding your posts and I’m ready to install them. Question: did you have any concerns or problems mounting the dead pedal? Any concerns over drilling through the floor pan or any wiring going under carpeting in that area?
