Default Gas pedal question

Who's aluminum gas pedal looks the most like the factory brake and clutch pedal? I saw a post a couple weeks ago that a few people said it looked the most similar after looking at the pics but now I can't find it. It was not Elite, i do remember that.

It wasn't ELITE ENGINEERING? Of all of the after market gas and dead pedals I've seen, theirs seems to match the best. I think they went to great efforts to match the oem...but, I guess it's in the eye of the beholder...

I think this one is shaped most like the stock pedal.

Same one I just installed yesterday. Good quality aluminum, looks and feels like factory.
BTW.........since the gas pedal is now a few ounces lighter, I can really feel a difference in HP gains. Along with the performance hood seal I now have a real beast!

The one from corvettepartz seems to match the best, the dead pedal is pretty nice as well.

I went with the ELITE ENGINEERING style. I think it looks pretty much like the stock brake and clutch pedal..

What ever pedal you end up with, consider using a longer pin with a small hole in the end of it to install it. Then you can put a small spring clip through the hole and the pin won't work out. I bought the pins and spring clips I use at the local hardware store.
