Default Need (1) 991 GT3 wheel front in Platinum satin

Yes, just 1 front in platinum to fit 2015 GT3. Long shot I know...

Through Porsche: $2795

Through Suncoast: $2040

Needs to be close to new if not new. If anybody has a single let me know. Any ideas welcomed as well...

Thanks in advance!

Try Sunset Porsche up in Oregon.

Ask for Jesse South.

Effing craziest thing...

Simply pulled in to park and curbed the right front, angle was just a tad steep/close coming in...totally blows. 10'' worth :/. Not going to repair it. Very expensive mistake from not paying attention..

Thanks for checking in bronson..

If it's just curb rash why not get someone to repair it? Shouldn't be hard to do at all.

It's a bad one...

I would consider that but have had bad luck in the past. I may do some checking.

Where do you live? I'm sure some of us can give you a referral.

Well, the good news it that you now have the rare and ubiquitous 991 GT3 garden hose reel.

Sorry for your boo boo. Hope you get a wheel here.

Put a call into Wheel Enhancements too.

No kidding, or the ubiquitous base to a coffee table! Hey, I could bolt it up and put my new history of the 917 book on top of it

Just so you guys know for fun. Porsche keeps exactly 1 in the US and 40 in Germany.

I'll give Wheel Enhancements a call as well...

Thanks... I'm going the repair route first. We'll see. The rash was long but not very deep. Some local Porsche owners recommended a service here in Mpls that claims a perfect match. Three day turnaround and $360.00. Worth a try. Never hurts saving $1500.
