Default Olympic 4X4 A/T Rock Rail Guards are Rusting!

I put on a pair of Olympic 4X4 A/T Rock Rail Guards 2 years ago..I have done no major offroading, but the rails are rusting around the bolts and in some spots the paint is actually peeling off the rails.

Anyone else have this issue? If I was to paint them, suggestions on what kind of paint to use (i.e. bedliner paint?)?

Thanks!

Did you buy them for Q-tech? or did you have to contact Olympic directly?

New england winters will def cause rust, especially over a 2 year period. Like said, try calling them up, good luck!
