That is a great color and I'm liking the wheels.  I'm a big fan of 18" rims as the tires aren't as ridiculously priced as 19" ones.

You are going to have a fun car.  Is there emissions testing in Iceland?
Jeah we got one of thoes :(
But my mazda is reg 94 , So i don´t have to have catalytic converter, and the emissions law is a loose. Just have to fine tune it .
All car after 95 have to have catalytic converter , here in iceland  and the emissions law are stronger and harder to pass with modified cars.

The firewall looks great.  Finally, someone who doesn't just take a hammer to the thing and beat the shit ot of it.  It looks like it could be stock.

I think that lip is for stiffness, so it makes sense to keep if you can.

its a pinch weld for where the firewall meets the upper firewall and wiper bucket, when he opened up that area it would be easier to just weld it flat than to recraft it back... I notched my wall then shaved that lip

It would have been easier, but this will be more rigid and it looks factory.

You are right at both stifnes for the wiper motor support and i like the factory look . I have a good space  betwen motor en firewall . I remove abs from the car and I hidden brake line under the lip .
will put more phots soon.
