BMW E36 Coupe Boot Firewall

With this E36 coupe boot firewall you neatly close off the boot of a BMW E36 coupé from the interior. The panel is cut from 1 mm aluminium and powder coated black on both sides. This keeps smoke and dust in the boot where they belong, and a bare motorsport interior immediately looks a lot more finished.

In a coupé built for drift or circuit work, the back often holds all sorts of things: a fuel cell, battery or spare wheel. A closed, light panel behind the seats is then a practical and clean solution.

Installation and delivery

The manufacturer leaves it up to you how you fix the E36 coupe boot firewall; with pop rivets the panel sits firm and flat. First dry-fit the panel in the opening, mark the holes and drill them all the way round. Then fix the panel, starting in the middle and working towards the corners. Keep an even spacing between the fixing points, so that the panel sits tight everywhere.

A thin bead of sealant or self-adhesive sealing tape along the edge helps to make the panel dustproof. Treat bare metal around the drill holes against rust and make sure that cables or lines behind the panel do not get trapped.

Also take a look at the other products in our firewalls category. The same panel fits a four-door E36, and you can also find it as the firewall for the E36 saloon.

Clean, light and sealed: an aluminium panel that shields the boot of your E36 coupé from the cabin.

Why choose an E36 coupe boot firewall?

An open connection between cabin and boot gives dust, odours and smoke free rein. This aluminium panel closes it off without adding much weight. The powder coating also makes it easy to keep clean, and the black colour blends into virtually any interior.

Frequently asked questions

Is this firewall only for the coupé?

No. This E36 coupe boot firewall fits the E36 coupé and also the E36 saloon.

What material is the panel made of?

The E36 coupe boot firewall is made of 1 mm aluminium, CNC-cut and powder coated black on both sides.

How much does it weigh?

About 1.3 kg. For a panel that covers the whole opening behind the seats, that is very little, so it combines well with a light motorsport build.

Which mounting do you recommend?

You are free to choose how you fix it, but pop rivets are recommended.

What is the point of a firewall at the back?

It stops smoke and dust from the boot getting into the interior, and it looks tidier.

Do I have to weld?

No. You only drill small holes for pop rivets or screws. Treat them against rust afterwards.

Can I remove the panel again later?

Yes. You drill out pop rivets and undo screws. After that you can finish the opening the way it was before.
