Accelerator pedal located too close to hump

i have that problem in my hatchback to the point now that there a hole in the carpet. So i'm thinking of getting some type of rubber mat and glue over that hump so it doesn't get worst come winter.

Look into the "big foot" mod in the DIY section, maybe you can come up with a similar solution?

Get some aftermarket pedals which will reposition your pedals to the way you want it. I have mine setup so heel and toe is easy.
