I ordered a replacement plastic gimbal ring for my Grado headphones which had a broken peg. Installed the replacement and it worked just fine. Next, I immediately replaced the plastic gimbal ring with a machined aluminum gimbal ring. The quality of sound from my sr80e headphones skyrocketed.

Good morning, your package has not arrived to you, tracking shows you are correct. I would like to add that it has been 7 business days since your package shipped from the US to Spain via First Class US Postal Service. I wouldn't have expected your package to have arrived.
It is an international shipment and will probably need to go through customs. These packages take 5-7 business days to be delivered within the United States depending on the delivery point.

Easy to install fix
After many years of use, the plastic gimbel on my headphones broke. I thought there would be problems getting them fixed, but the helpful people at Grado informed me that I only needed a new gimbel, which was very inexpensive. They shipped it promptly, I had no problems installing it, and now my headphones are fixed!

What a relief!
Prestige Series, SR 80 e headphones, purchased six, eight years ago? A post on the "Plastic Gimbal Ring" had broken, so that the left ear-piece was only attached on one side. I was dismayed. Best sounding headphones I have ever owned. Went back to the store I bought them from to inquire about a remedy. No longer under warranty, I was on my own. They gave me a phone number for Grado Labs and suggested I give them a call. I went online, visiting the Grado Labs website and noticed a parts tab. Lo and behold, a new Plastic Gimbal Ring for $10. So I ordered two, didn't have to pay to ship my headphones to them to "repair" and then pay to have them shipped back. And now I have a spare.
