That is a fat bend! Must be nice being able to tint your front windows too, can't do that in CA

Nice "Tesla T's" on your headlight lenses, I got them too :B

Welcome to the forums Ruben.

What wheels are at the top of your list? We can put together a wheel & brake package for you and even have the calipers custom colored from factory so that you don't lose Brembo warranty.

HRE has them in very low stock in 19" Liquid Gloss Silver. When the wheels show as very low stock that means there is one maybe two complete sets left in inventory. Once these are sold out HRE does not plan to build new ones in this fitment and color.

Tarmac Satin Black is arriving back in HRE's inventory at the end of February.

We will have to pick out the big brake kit first to make sure the FF15's will clear.

Considering that bend, I'd be unlikely to order that setup if HRE is going to cease production.... bend one and you have 3 worthless wheels in the set. I'm sure @thewb can find you something that looks very similar but can actually be sourced WHEN you need a replacement. (I live in Minneapolis and our roads are not a whole lot better).

Ceasing production in one specific color. The other colors can always be stripped down and refinished to the Liquid Silver if needed.

I like the color. How long have you had it? Any mods planned?
By the way, your right hood catch looks like it may be out of adjustment. I say this because I had the same issue. Same side, actually. In my case the catch was adjusted too "tight" so it wouldn't latch when the hood was closed. A couple of clockwise turns on the adjustment nut solved the problem. Now it closes uniformaly.

OUCH! I hope those are either a.) REAL 3 piece wheels (so you can replace just the outer lip), or b.) nice/cheap/easy to source a replacement. Damn that sucks. I'm sorry bud!

Yeah, they're 3-piece. Contacted four shops nearby, only one of them is willing to work on a chrome barrel and it would cost around $700 once everything is said and done. Since it's not leaking any air, I'm just gonna leave it and save that money for a new set of rims which I've been wanting to get for a long time. No chrome this time so I can get it repaired normally in the event something like this happens again :B

Sorry to read about your wheel brother. FWIW - whenever I've had these issues, I've sent my wheels to Wheels America (Philly location). They've got locations all over the US and they've always done great work for me at a reasonable price. Wheels always came back fast and the one time I had an issue (paint was too thick and filled the Carlsson logo too high on two of the wheels) they resolved the issue at no charge (but it did take a few more days). Since your's is just the barrel it might even be cheaper. Check em out. No affiliation BTW - just a satisfied customer. Either way, good luck!
