MEIN VDUB
Well I guess I got ahead of myself by posting a few times and not doing an introduction, so here goes, I'm Wes and I am Kelli's (Maleficent) husband. I have been in the Army for a long time and currently work as a recruiter for the California Army National Guard. I am unusual here as I don't actually have a MINI. Hopefully nobody will hold that against me. The MINI belongs to Kelli, but I love to work on and drive her car (when she lets me). I do have a Euro though, a 2004.5 Jetta GLI. So without further ado, let me present the car that got me into the modding:
