It’s true, my black bars are rusted to hell and back. One came off the front hinge recently, my wife had to bring my 18v multi tool so I could cut the rusted bolts/brackets off by the side of the road. I looked into it and was told mine rusted because I didn’t have mud flaps, your van has them so that’s BS then.
Hi, Sorry to hear you had the common issues. Mud flaps do help a lot as they reduce stone chips to the front of the bar. Without mud flaps, as soon as you drive for a few weeks, you will get stone chips on the front of the bar and rust will set in. Definitely better with the powder coated stainless steel ones as they do last longer.

Thanks, just on time this video. Saved me a trouble
Glad it helped, find the stainless steel ones, you can get ones already powder coated! Simon
