It's .. annoying clunk. These are no diesels, one has to use clutch frequently, when rowing through gears on MT. That's annoying clunk often.
BTW, i had this mod with similar round stopper. Relatively thin metal plate of pedal cut through this rubber bumper quickly. 2-3 weeks quickly. Currently i DIY made thinner but much wider (then even base, that stopper is attached to) stopper (made from round furniture anti-skid pad, that can be attached with screw). Longer contact area = will cut through less. And main point of this mod is not so much as to rise clutch bite point, as reducing overly long dead travel till bite point, isn't it? It's simpler to do by adjusting pedal travel (and clutch sensor) imho. |

I think that's what I said, raising the point where the pedal stops, i.e., no further travel. And no matter how much you adjust the pedal, it'll still travel all the way to the stop. This is not about bite point, but rather about eliminating that travel region where the clutch spring misbehaves, without having to remove the spring.

You can buy all sorts of bumpers from here:
https://www.mcmaster.com/bumper-cushions However, I still haven't found a durable solution. Maybe I'll cut down some polyurethane? The felt pads and rubber pads on Amazon are too soft imo. |

As i've mentioned before. Try for bumpstop something of larger & flat area. If area of touch between pedal plate and bumpstop will be few times wider, proportionally it will cut through less/last longer, even if of same material and pushed against with same force / same frequency.
My current "bumpstop", flat furniture leg cushion in ring/washer shape, around 1 1/2 inch in diameter, with hole in mid for screw, lasts for me already for around two years. Used for it screw from "desintegrated" bumpstop mentioned in this thread (as for me it also didn't last long before it got cut through), and sticked above this stopper thin felt.
