BMW Z3 (E36/7 and E36/8) No-Drill Dead Pedal

$48.00

The Z3 factory dead pedal (or footrest to some) isn't the best-looking design, and it isn't particularly grippy, either. Our dead pedal cover snaps on over the factory dead pedal without any drilling and provides improved grip and aesthetics. 

Our black pedals are made from lightweight aluminium and black-anodized to military specification MIL-A-8625 Type III for durability. This is the same coating often used on firearms because of its durability. Our dead pedal has an understated look that complements the clutch, brake and gas pedals. You interact with the dead pedal nearly the entire time you are driving, so it makes sense to upgrade something that you touch all the time.

We have added a raw aluminum option for those of you that want to do your own custom painting, powder coating or anodizing to a different color. We do not recommend using the raw aluminum without a coating, as it may stain or corrode over time. The finish is a scuffed finish, ready for anodizing, powder coating or paint. It is not a brushed finish.

These dead pedals are lovingly hand-formed and dimpled one at a time in Austin, Texas.

For left-hand-drive Z3 and Z3M Roadsters (E36/7) and Coupes (E36/8). This fits over the lateral trim panels (also known as speaker panels or kick panels) with BMW part numbers 51438399853 and 51438399855.

Not a standalone dead pedal

I was under the impression based on the product title that this was a standalone dead pedal. It is instead meant to attach to the factory dead pedal. If someone is searching for this product it's likely because their dead pedal broke, in which case there's nothing for this thing to attach to.

What BMW should’ve done

Quality-made foot rest that doesn’t empty my wallet. Fits perfectly and looks good. No worries about crunching it when downshifting into a tight turn. Well done!
