On the fence! (again)

Pondering the installation of aluminum (Schnitzer) pedals on the thing. Not sure how it will look. Cheezy? I'd appreciate some pics from the owners that have done it, in order to make up my mind.
Thanks.

I have an E53, not an E70, but I don't really think mine look cheesy.

No it does not look cheezy (thanks for the pic). I think mine would look even better on the black interior. Still,...if someone has a pic with the black carpet, I'd appreciate it.

There are tons of replicas, (fake!) stuff too. Be careful. These are genuine.

I did the cheap replicas, off eBay. They have been flawless for the 3.5 years I have had them. I wouldn't pay $300-400 for something, when $100 works exactly the same.

I don't have a problem with "cheap", but I do with "fake". I refuse to support Chinese industry of fake goods. I know my boycott will not make a difference, but I detest any fake goods.
Maybe I was conditioned by many years of collecting Rolex watches, and God knows, China is raping that industry.
Come think of it,...I don't like ANYTHING made in China.
