For me it looks a bit weird on a RH drive (can't help thinking about it being on wrong side, should be next to clutch) but it looks like good job and obviously nice and consistent with the other pedals being OEM.

Up to you at the end of the day  :wink:

You have done a nice job, but I too think it looks a bit odd being there. Do you ever rest your foot on it? Maybe with cruise control on.

The left foot rest cover would look ok as it would be in the right place. It might look better with one of those as well, but on the other hand, 5 'pedals' would probably be too much.

Not keen, it looks a bit strange.  I'd have just gone for the left footrest cover instead.  Anything more would be overkill.
