    Once you get pics, post them up.

    No need to start a preemptive thread.

    edit: if you haven't posted pics within the next few hours, there's no point to leave this open.

    are you on crack? rust makes holes or changes the color and weakens the metal, clear coat doesnt shine and you feel the roughness of the paint.

    If clear coat peels it allows the paint to be damaged and rust to occur.
