You did a very nice job on that mod. My factory rubber cover had a crack I didn't know about, when I installed these it made a world of difference in shifting. Now my foot stays when I depress the clutch as the Aluminum is knurled and really bites the bottom of any shoe.

The stock pedals work absolutely fine for my ankle (I roll the foot to blip). Everytime I instruct in a car with pedal extensions, they always seem to get in the way.

I guess what solution works for each, is the best.

Not if I use POR-15 first, then paint over it. The paint might come off, but the POR won't.

I did do the job really well.

I have a narrow foot. This worked so well that I never noticed it once today. I didn't have a problem downshifting at all. As I said though, last time I did have a problem.

I'm guessing you weren't there today, or were you? We have to say, "Hi" at one of these events.
