Arabic term (edited):
حمام قدم
Selected
shower tray
I believe the term is "حمام قدم". There are some Google hits but I'm not really sure what it means. Possibly shower tray/ shower base.

80cm x 80cm seems to be a standard size for shower trays. See e.g. here http://www.wdbathrooms.co.uk/acatalog/800mm_x_800mm.html

Agree with Alexander - حوض حمام قدم is the shower tray (so my suggestion includes the word حوض as well)

Foot
حمام قدمmeans "foot bath," not "feet bath." See the links below for products on sale for the same purpose.

A foot bath is called that despite the fact that it is for both feet. It is similar to "toothbrush," which is used for all teeth. Shoe polish is another example.

Nesrin has a good argument that this is wrong. See her entry also.

: Given the size (80 cm x 80 cm), I think I may be right here. This seems to be a standard size for shower trays ( www.wdbathrooms.co.uk/acatalog/800mm_x_800mm.html )

The Kansas City International Airport has added several foot-washing basins in restrooms to accommodate a growing number of Muslim taxicab drivers who requested the facilities to prepare for daily Islamic prayer, WND has learned.
The move concerns airport police who worry about Middle Eastern men loitering inside the building. After 9/11, the airport beefed up its police force to help prevent terrorist attacks.
