Thanks again.
The regular Mini brake/cluch pedals are oval like the stock ones. I saw a picture here on NAM where somone used the Ferrari brake/cluch pedals. So I ordered those, they fit no problem. When you go to the website you'll go to products then to Ferrari to order the brake/clutch pedals then go to Mini to order the heel-toe & footrest pedals.

Here's the info on how to order.


Ultimate Pedals would like to offer a Mini Cooper group buy.
They are a machine shop in Southern Florida and have a line of racing pedals that they design/manufacture in house.
They custom make every order so customization is no problem.
In additional to pedals made specifically for your vehicle, they offer custom engraving, heel toe gas pedal extensions, heelguards, door sills, etc…
(This is going to be quite long, but for some of you this is your first group buy so I am going to explain it all very thoroughly)
They can offer the following discounts:
1) 25% off if we get 5-9 orders
2) 30% off if we get 10-19 orders
3) 35% off if we get 20+ orders.
(pedal order minimum definition is a gas and brake or brake/clutch pedals)
They offer a no questions asked moneyback guaranteed if you are not satisfied with the fit or finish.
Other forum members really enjoy the product.
Now down to the nitty gritty…
Custom engraving starts at $10 per pedal (not subject to discount).
The pedals will have the discount, any engravings will not.
The engravings look like what you would see on the back of a watch or inside a ring NO COLOR IN THE ENGRAVING, it is just an engraving.
The group buy is active as of now, and the last day for ordering is December 31st.
The items will be shipped 7 to 10 working days after the group buy ends. (All pieces have to be custom made and depending on how many orders it may be 10 but they are shooting for 7.)
Shipping charges are typically ~$13 (UPS Ground within the Continental US).
So now that all that stuff is done, How do I get my discount?
Preferably, if you have a pretty straight forward order, please use their website.
Their Mini Cooper line can be viewed here:
http://www.ultimatepedals.com/catalo...?cPath=124_125
Specify your vehicle, the Mini Cooper group buy, as well as any engraving options or other customization (like Ferrari style brake and clutch pedals, see photo) during the checkout process when you are asked to indicate year, make, and model.
If you don't mention the Mini Cooper group buy you'll get your pedals quickly, but not discounted.
Also, with the website you won’t see the discount automatically, and you will get a confirmation email pretty quickly. That email will not have the discount applied to it, DONT WORRY....the set up of their software cannot compute a discount, it has to be manually accounted for. The discount will be refunded back to your credit card before your order ships.
You will also get an e-mail from UPS Quantum View (for the US orders) with your order’s tracking number.
You can also call them, please try to use their website unless you really hate internet shopping or you have a custom order, it takes up a lot of manpower to answer questions by phone.
Please post any questions in this thread, I will answer questions as quickly as possible.
I should point out ultimatepedals.com is not a Mini Cooper product, but hey neither is GP Forums, so it's all good.
Sorry for the very lengthy instructions, but I hate when there is not enough info.
Also PLEASE POST WHEN YOU HAVE MADE AN ORDER, AND JUST SAY HOW MANY PIECES YOU ORDERED (1, 4, ETC ETC).

Thanks for doing all this! Unfortunately I was not able to take advantage of your deal as I purchased mine in April. I got the same pedals as you but without the rubber ***** in the frosted finish and without engraving. I really enjoy the ease of heel/toe compared to stock. It is a great product.

I did not use the stock shaped mini brake/clutch pedals, I used the Ferrari ones, I got the idea from a old posting I found here on NAM.
Yeah I remember that post...agrainger was the one using that set up...nice

gonna order these for the mini on Monday, glad i found this as i was looking for pedals anyhow. and i really like that Ferrari setup.

if i ordered 2 sets, the mini as well as one for the other car, would the discount apply to both? if not, i'm not in dire need of pedals for the mazda, but for a discount, i might push it through

I think if you order them together, then give Rob a call you should be ok.

I ordered my set.. did not get a confirmation but my c/c was charged .. This morning I noticed they charged additional $20.00 on top of the $279.00 at time of ordering.. is this a "reverse" discount?

I shall ring them today to see what is going on.. but can't wait to have the pedals installed I should be able to "heel and toe" FINALLY !!
