The pedal is cast aluminum so it’s pretty easy to work with. The tab is made with 1/8” extruded. I had to file a flat spot on the backside of the pedal where the tab goes. I found you have to be super careful drilling and tapping the holes for the machine screws because the aluminum is very thin. I used a drill press to make sure the hole didn’t surface somewhere.Great idea, thanks. I was thinking about this as I just repainted my side covers. Was worried about my boot rubbing also and was trying to come up with a idea. Problem solved, thanks again

Nice idea and I hate to be the first to piss on it but there is sufficient metal there that it is not weakened in anyway snd the holes aren't a source for a stress fracture? I'd rather rub off paint than have the pedal break off in a panic braking situation.
