This is my 2003 Volkswagen Jetta GLS 2.0. I purchased this car on October 25, 2008 as a replacement for my 1995 Mercury Villager. This is my second car, but the first one that I really hope to keep for a long time. It's slowly changing from stock to OEM+.
EVERY mod has been done by me. I'd rather install everything myself, and learn in the process, than pay someone to do it for me.
Some art I made, lol.
This is what the car will eventually look like... Not long to go before I'm there :)
Both versions of the tails on
