Default I got bored and made some pedal covers

Perf aluminum - free
aluminum rivots - free (because I already hade them)
having access to any tool I could need - free

having time due to unemployment - priceless!


I like the ECS ones but didn't feel like dropping $150 on them so I made my own.

Haven't gotten them wet yet, but I think they will probably be alright, the rivots are much better grip on my shoes than the stock rubber pedals.

The clutch?! That thing was more work than it was worth, I mean I had to push it in almost every time I switched gears. So I took it out and threw it away.
