Ordered my pedals from Ultimate went with Shiny anti slip and asked if they can put logo on the brake. I have 2 choices. 1st pic is embossed and $30, 2nd is raised engraving for $40. I am favouring raised engraving at the moment.

What are peoples thoughts? And should I change from shiny to frosted?

Embossed frosted, per originals.
Shiny is just bling, that you are rubbing your shoes against, and embossed looks nicer to me.

Yeah don't think the flash photography helps. My issue with the embossed is it is very rounded.

Accelerator and brake on ebay are 60 each at present but I don't like the accelerator design with the dimples as it doesn't match the brake and then Stindigs dead pedal is mc version so doesn't match either. OCD....
Or I can buy an MC set for £500 not!!

They are down in the foot well, you honestly won't be critical to them being 'rounded'.
Honestly, don't get the bling shiny ones!!

This is true, got in the missus' Micra today, braked at the main T-junc normal Maser-style, nearly went through the windscreen.....

You could say the Micra has over assisted servo brakes...
My old Lotus Elise had excellent brakes, no servo, so you had to push them more than a car with servo brakes.

Surely the shiny will get scuffed up and end up dull?

I went with the embossed and frosted.
Thread made me smile. People wanting to talk about cars, get back to Maserati and stop the talk about other pointless stuff and when you ask for peoples thoughts and honest opinions you only get a few from the normal contributors. I will title my next one as Vote brexit and ban Hamilton. :D;)
