Exterior mods is a little different than a insignificance of a foot rest 
I was just asking a question anyway. To me it doesn't seem like a big deal though, I guess to others it is

So it's all about using the force ha?
I was afraid I was going to tear the rug apart trying to get the old one out. What I ended up doing was putting a cutting wheel on my dremel and cutting the old one along the corner lengthwise so I could get at the glued back sides underneath. Then you take a razor blade and cut the rug away were its glued to the old pedal. Total pain in the ass. The new one takes about 5 minutes to install.

The OEM one looks like crap after 6 months and looks kind of cheap for a $60k car.
