Default Aluminum Pedals?

I remember dynoproauto used to sell metal medals that had z28 engraved on them. I think for a stick car they went for around 65 bucks a set. Anyone know who makes these and where I can get a set? Seems that their site doesn't work anymore (are they even in business still???)

Thanks

I've NEVER had problems with my feet slipping on the pedals. Mine have ridges that stick up along the edges and around the holes. They work even better than the stock ones.

Thunder Racing and WS6 Store have some leftover MBA ones, I bought a set 2 months ago or so and they work pretty well.

+1 for the autovation pedals
Autovation originally made the engraved ones (SS, Z28, etc...) but ran into licensing trouble with GM a few years ago, and they sold their stock to dynoproauto. I don't know what happened to dynoproauto though? You can still get the plain pedals (shiny or matte finish) from autovation. I drive in the rain with these all the time, and my feet have never slipped. Infact the raised edges around the holes and perimeter of the pedals are so sharp that they really dig into the rubber soles of my shoes. Also they aren't just covers like some others. They replace the rubber pads and you drill the factory metal under the rubber pads to install these. Do a google search for autovation pedals, and it should be the first link to pop up

I have a really bad problem with my feet slipping, even with rubber middle inserts on the pedals. I wouldn't recommend them.
