Title: Alloy Foot Rests Plates...
Post by: martininwillerby on 21 May 2011, 17:08: Hi...
I'm making an inquiry to see if any of you know where I can get some Alloy Foot Rest Plates for a Mk6 Golf GTD, I'm after both the left and right foot one. Preferably some with out the fixing holes.
Any help would be great...

BTW, they've named me the Blingmiester because of the high level of shiny content in my footwell. You are welcome to become my disciple. :cool:

Youl'll be the second person, after me, to have a right metal foot rest. I did the original measurements together with Gulfstream's help. You will now be called Blingmiester 2 by the lads/lasses on the forum.
Good choice and great taste, except for the flaps! :grin:
Asker.

It must be your end. It was just as quick to me!
I hope more people see the light and get a right foot rest. The plastic bit looks cheap and out of place. :smug:

Fitted the foot rests and seat lever inserts tonight. I'm very pleased with the end result.

I fitted black electrical tape behind both the foot rests and white on the seat lever inserts.

Do a search for Gulfstream11, he's the main man for them. Top class guy with a top class product.

Post by: JonnyG on 07 June 2011, 20:06: I'm not sure Gulfstream is still around selling these ? or maybe he's changed his Ebay name ?

These look exactly like Gulfstream's though and have the "GTI" logo on them :-
