Hey everyone! I recently picked up a Genesis G70 Sport and I’m absolutely loving the interior, but I’ve noticed the stock rubber pedals look a bit plain compared to the rest of the cabin's premium feel. I’m looking to upgrade to some high-quality pedal covers that match the sporty aesthetic of the car without looking like cheap, universal clip-ons.
I’ve been browsing around, but I’m a bit torn between getting the OEM aluminum pedals from the higher trims or going with an aftermarket brand like SRP or even some of the brushed metal options found on eBay/Amazon. My main concern is the fitment and safety; I definitely don't want anything that feels loose or gets slippery when my shoes are wet. I’m ideally looking for something that offers a bit of extra grip and has that sleek, brushed metal finish to complement the door handles and trim. Does anyone have experience with specific brands that offer a perfect, snug fit for the Genesis sport models? I’d love to hear about the installation process too—are most of these a simple slip-on, or do I need to look into drilling? Which pedal covers provide the best balance of looks and durability for daily driving?
• I’ve tried cheap generic brands and high-end ones over many years.
• My current setup fits perfectly without drilling!
• Honestly, looking for snug, non-slip rubber inserts is the key to safety.
Honestly, I have a safety-first perspective on this because I've actually had a scary moment with cheap covers in the past. I tried some random universal ones years ago and the brake pedal cover literally slipped off while I was coming to a stop... never again. For the G70, you really want something that bolts on if you're worried about durability.
Unfortunately, most of the cheap stuff is just slip-on rubber and they *can* get slippery when wet. If you want real grip, I'd suggest looking at SRP Racing Genesis G70 Aluminum Pedals. These are actual CNC-machined plates that you drill into the existing pedals. I know, drilling sounds terrifying on a new car, but it's the only way to get a 100% solid connection that won't budge during spirited driving. They have a grid or block texture that's way better than the OEM rubber nibs for wet shoes.
Another solid high-end option is Ultimate Pedals Custom Aluminum Pedal Set for Genesis G70. They're pricey, but the finish is top-tier brushed metal that perfectly matches the interior trim. If you're not down to drill, at least grab the HKS Billet Aluminum Sport Pedal Kit if you can find the adapter size, as their clamp system is much sturdier than the Amazon slip-ons. Just my two cents from a few years of messing with interior mods—don't compromise on the parts that actually control the car! safe driving man. 👍
yo! honestly, i feel u on this. the stock rubber ones are like, totally fine for a base model but for a sport trim? nah. i was super cautious about safety cuz i didnt want any slip-ups while driving my g70, but i also didnt want to spend $200+ for the dealer to do it. i ended up going the budget route and im sooo happy i did!
here's my experience with the cost-effective way to get that premium look:
1. i grabbed the Genuine Hyundai Genesis G70 Aluminum Sport Pedal Set from an oem parts site for about $45-$60. basically, these are the exact ones from the higher trims. they fit LITERALLY perfect cuz they're made for the car.
2. installation is actually kinda easy but a bit of a workout for your thumbs lol. the brake pedal is a simple slip-on—you just peel the old rubber off and stretch the new aluminum one over the metal plate. it fits SNUG so it wont budge. the gas pedal on the g70 is actually a whole assembly replacement usually, but you can find just the cover piece too.
3. for the dead pedal (footrest), i found a matching Aftermarket Brushed Aluminum Dead Pedal Cover for Genesis G70 on amazon for like $20. it matches the oem brushed metal finish almost perfectly!
seriously, dont waste money on universal clip-ons. they're sketchy and look cheap. sticking with the oem aluminum covers is the best balance of safety and aesthetics without breaking the bank. plus, they have the rubber nubs for grip, so no sliding around when it rains. gl! 👍
Seconding the recommendation above. Honestly, you dont need to drop $200 for that premium look. In my experience, these budget options are basically identical to the OEM feel:
* Dewhel Aluminum Brake Gas Pedal Cover Set for Genesis G70 (~$25) - Slip-on and super snug.
* Xotic Tech Silver Brushed Aluminum Pedal Covers for Genesis (~$30) - Great grip tbh.
They just pop over the metal (after pulling the old brake rubber off). Super easy DIY! Cheers.
