Pilot automotive brand

Has anybody here ever used Pilot automotive brand pedal pads? are they alright quality or are they just crap.

For that matter has anybody ever used pilot automotive anything? does any of the products that they make work any good or are they all just crappy?

I have an exhaust tip and pedal covers from them. Pedal covers are nice, but you have to take off the rubber on the brake pedal to put them on. I have an auto, so I can't say if that's true if you have a manual.

I've got a manual but i dont know if i'd be a fan of taking the rubber off of my pedals.

How long have you had the tip on? any rust at all?

It's not too hard to get the rubber off. Getting them back on takes some finagling.

The exhaust tips never really last more than a year for me really. The salt eats away at them and the bolts eventually rust. First one was a pilot, second was a dc sport, this one now is a pilot.

I guess I didn't think that the rubber would all come off in one piece. I saw a set today and the other day that i kind of liked but the gas pedal didn't look the same shape and size, but i haven't checked out anything at the auto parts stores.

Nope, the ones I have mount with brackets that fit under the pedals, I just had to cut the small bolts to the right size so my clutch pedal would go all the way down. The rubber actually gave them a bit more support.
