Default LS Alloy pedals

Does anyone have this option fitted to their Focus?

How are they attached to the pedals?

yes I have them and after 1 week the clutch pedal fell off. they are just cheap pressed alloy covers that are glued to what seems to be the standard pedal with contact adhesive.

Cheap to produce I guess..

Yup, its an alloy cover that is glued via adhesive pads to the rubber pedal. Its not the standard pedal though. It comes with the kit and has the raised round dimples to it. I have them and I think along with the alloy gear knob, it looks great. I've had mine since March and its still goin good. It has tabs on the sides where you bend it so it secures it onto the pedal.

F*** me thats shoddy. I got defected in an old Nissan Pulsar for alloy pedals, that I had drilled on directly through the metal pedal (took the rubber off) using a hex bolts and nuts.

Looks like I'm going to the aftermarket for this...

Well... if I get defected for using my pedals, I'm sending the bill to the dealership. If its factory backed, I would expect it to be legal.
