For the clutch and brake pedals, in addition to the tape, I also used two spring clamps, one on each side, to hold them in place while I drilled the holes.
Leading evidence: 'Use two spring clamps, one' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use on a car.(about 1/16")' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules.

Again I have nothing to compare to, but the hardware is some of the thinnest machine screws I have ever seen for use on a car.(about 1/16")

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I saw these pedals being advertised on 6speedonline. Any thoughts Pros/Cons or better yet anyone have these in their car? They seem to be a great deal...

Thanks!
I have these pedals, but have yet to install them. They appear to be of good quality, although I haven't seen anything else to compare them to. The pedals are about 4mm thick, and have fairly hard rubber insert. If the insert wears out you could just remove it, but the pedal might become slick, since it is smooth. The only problem that I see is with the mounting hardware. Again I have nothing to compare to, but the hardware is some of the thinnest machine screws I have ever seen for use on a car.(about 1/16")
It is a good price, as I saw some of these pedals sell anywhere from $129-$200+ at different times on ebay.
If you need directions on how to install you will have to look them up as directions are not included.
They are modeled after the original Ruf aluminum pedals and are similar to the ones that Gert at Carnewal offers:

If they're not licensed to use the 'Porsche' name and font, I'm sure PCNA legal will catch up with them eventually......just like they did with the people who used to sell the silver hood crests
FWIW, I went with the Cargraphic pedals:
I bought them. They were difficult to install as there was no method to clamp the pedals together before drilling. I went to a fastener store and upgraded the hardware. The plastic pedals and the deadfoot were easy. I forget which pedal is metal but I do rememebr that it was more difficult. In retrospect I should have lifted the car up on my lift so the contortion factor was not so great. If you do not have a lift make sure you take a few advil ahead of time and add some streches to boot. They look very nice and feel great. The rubber seems pretty hard and rugged so wear is not a big concern unless you drive with golf spikes.

The pedals I bought came with double sided tape to help hold them in place. For the clutch and brake pedals, in addition to the tape, I also used two spring clamps, one on each side, to hold them in place while I drilled the holes. The brake pedal is metal, but a good Ti drill bit went through it in about 45 seconds per hole.
I picked up a set of those from eBay when they were selling for $139.00. They are stamped aluminum. The holes for the screws are slightly distorted from the stamping process. The hardware is minimal at best. I would get new hardware so factor that into your cost.
The rubber dimples are actually a rubber pad on the backside with raised dimples. As such the wing section of the gas pedal has no support for the outer most dimples. They will retract when you use that part of the pedal.
I'd spend a few more bucks for something better. Mine will be going into the tool chest.
