I had a long weekend for presidents day and decided to put on some things i had bought a while ago, got the SS line and R1 rotors on but today i went to start on my pedals from SRP, got the E-brake put on pretty easy, and went to the gas and noticed the curve of the gas pedal is alot more than the curve of the pedal cover and also a different shape.

So my question is do i have the right pedal cover and if so can i bend it to match????

short answer yes they have to be bent to match the radius of the plastic pedal.

Just put a towel on the floor and put one end on the towel and press down to make it bend. That is how I did mine just do a little at a time. It will seem like it is not bending. Just go slow.

I used c-clamps on blocks of wood on both sides. The wood was to keep from scratching the aluminum.

Stop using Harbor Freight made in China bits! :D My bit went through the steel pedal like butter. Spray a little wd-40 and let the bit do the work. Don't push it hard. (yeah, yeah, TWSS, :P)

I used a section of 4" PVC pipe to make the pedal cover fit.
