That looks great, do they do it without the holes drilled too?

Not sure Ben, you would have to ask. The site I got it from is Parts4euro.com

Nah mate, they marked it down to only a few Hong Kong $ and marked as gift.

Kev: It would also look nice to have a bit of metal on the 'footrest' to the right of the accelerator pedal. What do you think?

Maybe, but personally I think that would be a bit too much down there. For me, the left footrest serves a purpose as it stops the carpety bit getting dirty and scuffed, your right foot never leaves the accellerator (unless you got cruise control) so as you say it would only be to look nice, but for me it would be a bit too much.

I have cruise, that is why I thought it would be good for me.
