    I have had my skid plate installed for about a month. Yesterday I noticed the outside of the bolts were rusty. Is this normal? I assumed the bolts were stainless steel but I guess not.

    It does not seem right that these bolts should rust after a month of use. Anyone else have this problem?

    Seems very odd. I can't see any but the bottom bolts on mine, but they were fine after about 3 months after install.
