why are gas pedals curved
That way people with short feet or those of us with long feet are still able to make full contact with the pedal. If it were flat, some people at either extreme would have a hell of a time trying to press the pedal.
related to this, does anybody know of some reliable aftermarket pedals that can be put on here? my sis had some old wal-mart pedals on her plymouth acclaim and since they looked half way decent i took them when she got a galant and tried putting them on my car only to find that while the brake pedal went on smoothly the gas one won't because of the curvature of the pedal. Is there anythinng I can do about this? I love the brake pedal now, so much more grip not to mention the hotness points 
p.s: too lazy to search and the wireless i'm on right now is rather crappy so i'm kinda afraid to...

Ok, sorry it took so long to get back....
Tidal, sorry not sure what time I got up, usually at school from 8 or 9 to 7 at night, plus however long I've got to take care of stuff at work.
Beat this, 16 hours at work on thursday, PLUS an additional 2 hour mall managment meeting and another 2 hour employee meeting = 20 hours in one freaking day!
