BMW E81 E82 E87 E88 Aluminium Floor with Footrest

With this aluminium floor with footrest, the footwell of your BMW 1 Series gets a flat aluminium floor with a raised rest for your feet. It is intended for the E81, E82, E87 and E88 and replaces the carpet in a stripped interior. Your feet get a firm footing and the interior immediately looks finished.

You mainly see floors like this in motorsport cars: rally, time attack, drift and quarter mile. They give the driver or co-driver comfort and a sense of security, because the feet do not slip away under hard braking or when the car takes a hit in a corner.

Installation and delivery

Installation is simple and quick. Remove the carpet and the insulation from the footwell, put the aluminium floor with footrest in place and position the four support feet so that it lies flat and stable. Then fasten everything with pop rivets or ordinary bolts.

Measure carefully before drilling and watch out for lines and cables under the floor. Treat drilled holes in the body against rust and check that the pedals still move freely after installation. On the driver’s side, make sure your heel cannot catch behind the accelerator pedal anywhere.

You will find more floor plates and mats in the floor mats and floor plates category. If you are only looking for a separate footrest, take a look at the universal footrest of 28 x 37 cm.

Solid ground under your feet, even when the car goes sideways through the corner.

Why choose this aluminium floor with footrest?

Carpet in a motorsport car absorbs moisture, slides around and looks worn out after a few seasons. This aluminium floor with footrest sits firmly, is easy to clean and the pressed pattern keeps your shoe in place. For a 1 Series that you are converting for rally, drift or time attack, it is a logical step. Combine the floor with bucket seats and a roll cage, and you have an interior that not only looks professional but also works that way.
