I'm using cargraphic...it's really nice....
but the only downside is that it's extremely slippery if your shoe is wet...
I think the ruf version offered right now is pretty nice, even though I haven't used it...but the rubber on top might seem to help a bit....

20 min. job.

I have become quite confident with my heal/toe shifting this year with stock pedals. I have a set of RUF pedals I was planning to install this winter, but am a little hesitant. I am afraid I will not be able to heal/toe as well as I can now. Is there any reason to be concerned about this?

I ordered the aluminum pedals from Gert Thursday evening, he shipped them Friday, and they arrived today. Great service, and they look great--can't wait to install them.

Just finished the install of pedals from Gert. They look even better on the car. Service was great. Ordered last Thursday, here on Monday. Now for the clear side lights.

Any tips? Was it straight forward?

Pretty straight forward. Took about 45 minutes. The only problem I had was the top screw for the dead pedal was too short and too small a diameter to use. I got another screw and ground down the head a bit to get it to fit in the recess in the pedal. It would have been nice if they would have provided a template for where to drill the holes instead of trying to eyeball it. I used a level to make sure the brake and clutch pedals were parallel.
