Not yet b/c I found that I should have these powdercoated over the anodizing so that the finish will last longer. It'll be a two-step process too, with the two colors, so it costs a little more and I want to p/c my Boss stb first, in the next couple of weeks. Plus I bought a Boss oil cooler, a new wheel (curb rash), Amsoil and magnetic drain plug this month and have to see if my mirror issue is covered by warranty before I fork out more mod cash. But soon...relatively! Sorry you asked now? lol

Do you think they will be very slippery when your shoes are wet because of the lack of rubber on the pedals?

I had the same thought but theyre supposed to be a lot grippier (see their dry/wet pedal tests: http://www.srpracing.com/pedal_grip_test.cfm ), though the accelerator is a little smoother and the extension much smoother, to aid in heel/toe. Ill definitely do some testing before I go all out in 'em.

Do you think the finish would wear that quickly?

The guy at my local coating shop said that anodizing will wear on high contact surfaces like pedals and that the powdercoat will too eventually, but will last longer than the anodizing. So I figure powdercoating them before any use is my best bet.. Not sure if they have any kind of "clear coat" or other additional protection that isnt slick, but figured Id ask that next time Im in.
