I'm looking to fit alloy pedals & scuff plates, but I can't find any dealers/sellers on the Net for either of them for a 380.
I've seen both mentioned in various posts so I'm pretty sure they exist somewhere (well at least the pedals, not so sure about scuff plates, might have them mixed up with Magna scuff plates).
Anyone have any ideas where I might be able to source these?
PS - mine's a manual so I'd need pedals to suit, i.e. including a clutch pedal. Don't want an alloy foot rest though.
KJ.

Most alloy pedals are illegal.. for off road use only. Reason being they need rubber to be legal.They get slippery when they get wet...

ive got alloy pedals from a outlander. check my members ride for pics. i got it from the clearance place. they are autos only but you could turn the footrest into a clutch one instead.

Re scuff plates, are you after real metal or just plastic/rubber stuff that looks like metal? And you mean for replacing the current floor mats, yeah? I've seen the plastic scuff plates at a few plenty of car parts shops pretty cheap.

GrubcCo,
Re scuff plates, I mean the interior trim plastic pieces on the bottom of the door openings, between the A & B pillars in the front and the B & C pillars in the rear. I think another name for them is kick plates or panels. I already have the factory option embroidered floor mats. And I'm after real metal if that's possible.
Re alloy pedals, I'll take Poita's advice and give them a miss - didn't think about slipperyness and/or legality, not worth the hassles.

Righto, I'm with you now. I was thinking of that checker-plate stuff - like you see wanky Excel owners put in the recess behind their rear number plates. I thought you wanted that stuff for your floor sections.
What you said is a good idea; I always notice my scuffy dirty shoe marks on the door when I put my car away after work. As much as you try to keep away from it, the marks always appear there. I don't think 380 models had anything better there though.
