	 (Thread Starter) |    Not Ranked  :   0 score  Rubber "Circles" For Clutch/Brake/Throttle Petals?  I have a 2007 MS3, and the little black rubber "circles" that spot the Clutch/Brake/Throttle Petals have worn away in many parts. When it is wet outside and my shoes get wet, sometimes my shoes slip off the petal because it is mostly metal now, which is obviously not good. Does anyone know how I can go about ordering new rubber "circles" (part number, etc?), or does anyone have any ideas for another solution that will also look good (I thought about some sort of friction tape, like for a skateboard, but I don't think that will look great, and it would probably be pretty hard on my shoes all of the time). |

	 |    Not Ranked  :   0 score    Grip tape is awesome on pedals but it does sort of look like crap. You can get round rubber feet or bumpers from home depot.  |

	 |    Not Ranked  :   0 score    Yeah I have spots on my pedals that are worn. Metal and rubber. Where I park at work has a gravel parking lot. This causes grit on my shoes to wear the pedals. 84k Km doesn'e help either. The rubber is worn but not to the point of no longer being there. They are just covers from what I have seen. Not sure on the cost from Mazda, I have never priced them. But they are replaceable. |

	 (Thread Starter) |    Not Ranked  :   0 score    I went with a skateboard tape like strip, used for stairs (probably is actually skateboard tape in larger pieces). Anyway, it is working fine, and cost me $3 from Wal-Mart. Doesn't look fantastic, but they are easily removable if and when I resell my car, so I think this turned out to be an excellent solution.  |
