Funny thing, my CRX was missing the rubber clutch pedal cover and was slick when wet. I did the same thing a few months ago, used self adhesive grip tape I use on my dirt bike frames, works like a champ. Stick it on and trim it in place on the pedal.

Great trick, great post.

Nice! Glad to see someone else is doing this! All of our race cars have grip tape on the pedals!

Black Magic grip tape is very quick wearing, while Jessup is longer lasting. Just my 2 cents.

iron horse or mob grip or jessup are all better grip tapes than black magic.
