You can pick them up from your local grocery store. Just buy Renolds Aluminum Wrap and wrap it around your padels. Cheapest mod I did so far, then I expanded and used it to make imitation Chrome fender guards... same shine but lighter for performance and looks to boot...

Re: Where I can get the cheapest alumi padels?

I read the description at everythingG35... and it says that it comes w/ CLIPS and recommends 3M adhesive... are the "genuine parts" alumni pedals clip ons? Or are they drilled? I ask because I've seen one example where somebody had drilled aluminum pedals that look just like the ones we're looking for... if somebody can chime in on this it'd be great!

Thanks

Get it from everythingg35.com, they sell them for cheapest and also i think other places dont even include the E-brake. Also everythingg35.com really ships fast. if you go to grubbs performance they have full instructions with pics for installation, but when you install the brake piece, instead of using a heat gun like they suggest, just dip it in hot water for few minutes.

Re: Where I can get the cheapest alumi padels?

I installed mine from Performance Nissan yesterday. I think it was ~$70 including all OEM hardware. I avoided the hot water and heat gun and found an easier way of putting on the drivers pedal (easier than what the DIY states anyway). You simply slide on the last clip instead of pressing it on.

Make sure if you're getting OEM Nissan Pedals that you get the bushing and clip that go with the gas pedal. Also, any set that says you have to glue them on, IS NOT OEM!!! The OEM pedals fit on and the clutch and brake pedals are a PITA. A small flat head screwdriver is a MUST!

I think usually the glue fitting is just for the foot brake in the 5AT. I believe even with the OEM pedals, you have to glue those on. I'm not 100% sure on that because I don't have the foot brake but I thought thats the way it worked.

Yes, you will have to epoxy/glue the emergency brake bedal on the 5AT. The gas, brake and dead pedal's all go on without any glue.

The emergency brake bedal cap that you get is in fact a clutch pedal (from the 6MT). I just used some epoxy, and clamped it overnight. It's not like you'll be using it that often anyway. It just completes the look.

I got mine from everythingg35.com
