Why would Fabfours do anything? They are scratched and rusting from not having paint on them. This is nothing that can be avoided, unless they were stainless or aluminum. Clean up the spots with a wire brush and repaint the bumper.

I have the same problem with my front LoD bumper. Same with my RE lift kit, shocks are full of rust after only a couple of months. I'm going to Line-X tomorrow to get an estimate for the front bumper.
