Last time I bought a repro gas pedal the hinge area was very flexible when new. Sadly the steel liner in the pedal itself was very weak (unlike an OEM pedal) and the pedal bent in about 1/2" in the middle over a few months and had to be replaced. There isn't much in the way of quality control on a lot of these reproduction parts.
