Door Bolts rusting
My 07 JK also has rust on the hinges . So at my most recent service appointment they promised to re-paint them in the spring. I'm not sure if that's good or bad or if I should just get the chrome/silver ones. Anyone had bad luck with touch up or repaint work like that?
Lengthy discussions on this.

mine were rusting internally and seeping out rust stains, others have had paint loss on the outside.
for the record, mine need to be pulled and relubed again, they are bleeding a bit.
