Rusty Caliper Bolts
The caliper bolts on all four corners of my 991.2 are rusting. I'm a bit concerned about the integrity of bolts as I cannot see if the corrosion is all the way through the caliper and into the mount. It's also ugly as the rust is running down the painted caliper. I would expect the bolts to be plated to resist corrosion. Has anyone seen this or had a warranty replacement?

Technically, those are not your caliper bolts.
Small wire brush. Rust primer. Paint.
Or send out for a pro job....different color. Look at Wheel Enhancements.
Use a different, better, wheel cleaner.
Buy the S with the big reds, no rust.

If they were mine I would take them out, clean them and paint them to eliminate the problem.
