Yeah, double clutching is not really necessary. I only use sometimes if I need to get it in 1st while the car is still moving. I too have found getting a smooth heel-toe downshift in this car is not that easy for me for some reason. I could do it easily in my wrx and even in my truck haha. So I just leave the SRM on when i drive the Z and keep up my hee-toe skillzz with my truck. I just like how the SRM works on upshifts too so it makes the driving much smoother. If i'm shifting reaally slow the SRM helps to prevent any jerk.

I will agree with the rubber part 100%, when I first got them I would partially get onto the brake pedal and my foot would slide a little. Moved over a bit and got on top of the pedal and it was great.
I just need to get some time to install the dead pedal at some point.
