Call GENIUS and ask why the dealer is telling you to not call them. At least they might get a wake up call from corp.

It seems to me the my dealer and the genius have access to the same information. Could be wrong but I've been pleased with the sharing of information and how thorough everyone has been explaining the process to a noob like me. Not sure whats going on over there but is there really any motivation to hide anything?

(OTOH, they're identical to what's in a VW GTI, so they're not all fancy special like the nice ///M setup offered by BMW)
I had the "pleasure" of driving both the original rubber ones and the MPerf pedals, and I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that they slip less than the rubber ones.

The rubber grips on the MPerf pedals stick out very far (almost 1/4") and have much, much, much more grip that the regular rubber on the pedals (they're soft, squishy and very "grippy").

And that's not factoring snow, which gets trapped in the rubber one, but easily falls off the MPerf ones.

For the price, they were totally worth it.

My dealer finally got back to me and apologized for not being able to get in contact with me. They said it was some email issues. Anyways, everything is back on track and I can go back to counting down the days.

If he ever finds it we'd be able to catch it on the lock cameras! Seems like it's been sitting there for days.

Now due in port on May 8. It's torture! I was really hoping to get the car by May 13 for a weekend vacation I had planned but it doesn't look like that'll happen.
