Ok, well I haven't driven the car in dress shoes yet but I have driven with sneakers that are slippery when wet since theyre basically flat and I have to say these pedals felt the same as the stock ones. The brake and clutch pedals have so many holes that I felt they had a little bit of resistance. As such, I don't think I'd engrave those if your thinking of that. Otherwise, they feel great, I've gotten a ton of compliments on them (and screamed at by my parents over the price) and they arent as slippery as people worry. UPedals might be concerned but the non-slips are a good bit more expensive so their reccomendation is a bit questionable.

I don't think anyone would have a problem with these.

It's a great product I'm enjoying it for over an year and a half. I'm thinking of getting rubber inserets for my pedals.
Sorry... , love the look but I'm not sure fater this PM from the GB....

HEK - that set is $186 (from what I can tell) sans any discount, so figure $168, $158, or $149 + shipping ($12 or so), depending on how many people get in on the deal. Helping out is they are including CL and TSX pedals in the GB.
This is the PM I got:
The pedals shown are our frosted anti-slip without grip inserts.

Pricing would be (before disount):

1) gas $58
2) brake and clutch (both included) $74
3) flat footrest $69
4) Shipping ~$12 (UPS ground within the Continental US)

Total $213 (before discount)

Total $172.80 (after discount, assuming 20% discount)

My total order was right at $200... so assuming the best GB discount, about 170 or so... I know that the shipping isn't 20% off

Couple of bucks either way....

It was 207 plus 25 engraving fee, right?

Sounds right.... The engraving is sans discount so I didn't include it since it is not a necessity of the set

If your pedal order total was $200 before discount, your total after disount would be $160 (assuming a 20% discount when we get 20 orders) plus shipping (~$12 for UPS ground within the Continental US) and engraving ($25 per pedal).

Here's a pic of the UP footrest (dead pedal), shiny smooth finish with the Acura logo engraved. I believe the logo size is relative to the surface area, so would probably be smaller on the gas pedal. Likewise on the brake & gas/clutch pedals. I also posted this in the UP GB Thread.

Guessed wrong as to which finish the ones in the pic were...didn't pick frosted

GB should be up to 6 people or so....

Hawhyen - Thanks for the pics!!! I went with the TL logo etched onthe footrest... I agree, I think any logo would be too small on the gas pedal...
