I seen them on there before and they look the part in the pic but im sure they would be similar to the cheap "racing pedals" that u can buy. dont fit properly and a chance that wen they go wrong u could do some damage to your car

My Turbosmart sticker made my BOV work better...The CV Performance sticker made my car go way better, might have had something to do with the other things they did though...

The larger ones in the set will fit the rear with some cutting to them, but *Good luck keeping them on & *Good luck with the clean up when they melt all over your caliper like a mates did?I got a brand new set here that are no good to me at allOk so dont take my word for it email a few of the people on ebay who have purchased them-Go to sellers feedback & find someone with a BA who has bought them.
