Default Why is my brake pedal so much lower than my other pedals?

First off sorry for bad pics. All I had was my phone and a flashlight in the dark lol. Anyway, the car is an eg hatch, Idk if my brake pedal is low or my gas/clutch pedals are too high... ive always driven hondas and never ran into this before so idk what it is or if they are even adjustable? It feels very weird driving with it like that. Also, this was converted from auto to manual if that means anything. Any feedback is greatly appreciated...

Have you tried bleeding the brakes? How does the pedal feel?

First off I'd take off the sketchy brake pedal.....I got knock off mugens for $40 and they're great. Secondly it's possible something in the mechanism/assembly is bent further up from someone slamming on the brakes.

The brakes were shitty when i got the car, i bled them and the master cylinder is new. Brakes are fine now. And I kept that gay brake pedal cover on there cuz it raises the height a little bit
