I wouldn't expect an aluminium foot rest. They've had them in all the other incarnations of high spec VWs for LHD only. I had the MK5/MK6 pedal set put in my Scirocco and there is no part number for a RHD foot rest plate. Looking at some of the interior photos shown on this forum today, doesn't look like anything visually obvious is missing from UK spec apart from the ADC.
