      Are the OP's pedals made out of REAL metal?

          The logo doesn't look quite right. I'd just hate to see a fellow e30 owner scammed out of so much money so I was concerned. I'm sure it's just the angle of the picture but you can never be too careful these days... I used to work in the outdoor clothing industry and used to see phony jackets a lot, you get pretty good at spotting the logo discrepancies though.

                    If they're anything like mine they held up pretty shittily:



                    These might hold up ok if you clear coat the shit out of them before installing and buying some stainless hardware for mounting. I might try to Sand these down but for 20 dollars why not just replace them?

                    I didn't buy for the logo, if they had nothing on them I would have liked that better. I agree that the real deal is a bit too expensive, but as you see in the picture there is a difference.
                    West German BMWs, they just don't make the same as they did before the wall fell.
                    ^Case in point: Auto-Repair Technology. Everytime my car isn't starting or acting up I let it sit, sometimes for an hour, sometimes for days. But it eventually fixes itself.

                      Holy crap Marie! Do you remember if you got the China or Taiwan version? The cheapest set including the dead pedal is $59.99...

                          I have no idea what set I bought, bought them with dead pedal like 4 years ago, finally got around to installing the brake clutch gas pedals a little over a year ago, never did put the dead pedal on. So all that crap on them is from only like 2 years. So the cheapness is in the durability. Or is it just me? Anyone with knock-offs have better luck?
