Door sills and dead pedal = new pics!

letsgoflyers81 · 10-30-2006, 06:19 PM

I got my door sills today and installed my dead pedal yesterday. I think both of them together are subtle enhancements to help set the car off. Please ignore the painfully dirty paint, I'll be washing her this weekend.

I like the door sills alot, the dead pedal I don't know about. I want the dc5 type r dead pedal.

I like it alot.

BLAZETIGER · 10-30-2006, 07:06 PM

Looks good!

You know I'm biased with the door sills so lets just say they look good, but I really like the dead pedal. On their website it looks huge, but compared to the other pedals (especially the gas) it doesn't look too big.

Any way you can think of making the Si lettering on the dead pedal red? Also, how does it install? Just drill into the other dead pedal or is it adhesive?

^^^^ same questions here on the dead pedal.

Toxis · 10-30-2006, 11:13 PM

Dear god... is that a dead pedal or a slab of metal? It's friggen HUGE!!!!

fa1 · 10-30-2006, 11:17 PM

It's screwed onto the stock dead pedal. you can see the screws in the pics.

Dixon Toudeap · 10-30-2006, 11:46 PM

looks great!!! congrats!

The pedal is screwed onto the stock pedal. I thought about trying to remove the stock pedal, but I didn't how how I'd mount the aluminum one. Since it fits over the stock one perfectly, I screwed it right in.

I suppose you could get some red paint and use a very fine brush, or maybe something like a red Sharpie. Personally, I'd rather not color it in. I like it subtle like it is. Plus I'd be afraid that it would come out looking bleh and I would just wish I had left it alone. So I'm leaving it alone.

mort · 10-31-2006, 01:07 AM

duy2006si · 10-31-2006, 01:44 AM

Right here. The one I got has the shiny smooth finish. It's not a perfect match for the stock pedals' finish, but it's pretty darn close. I got the flat grip inserts, but I haven't put them on yet. The Si engraving was an extra $10.

I love the sills but I'm partial to those already! I like the looks of the dead pedal but unsure of the size and I'm digging the logo on the mats...wish I had that

The dead pedal may look big, but I can assure you it is exactly the same size of the stock plastic one. I layed it right over top of it and srewed it in.

chilli si · 10-31-2006, 10:37 AM

IMHO i dont think the dead pedal matches the other pedals in fit and finish, and the door sill is aight..good job overall.

rb00 · 10-31-2006, 02:17 PM

Looks good!

The "flat grip inserts" are not already part of the pedal?
How long of a process to "apply it"?

BoneStock · 10-31-2006, 03:21 PM

Well it's better than nothing but shouldn't it need some grippers?
