Oh, hey. I forgot to say that there is no scratches or anything but just some light paint that must be faded in order to not crack the powder coat. That's why there is still some metal showing through the mounting holes. It's all covered under the mounting bolts anyway. It is completely clear coated so corrosion shouldn't be an issue. When you put them on. Snug the bolts tight but don't white knuckle it cause your washer will wear into the coat.
