Default installed gsr/si strut bar on my DX.. got a problem

hello,

first of all i live in a city where it rains or snows all the time in the winter.

as you already know, holes have to be drilled in order to put the strut bar. So my question is, how can i seal the holes so area near the holes would not rust out?

do you think applying grease on the screws and tighting them up would do the trick? woudldn't they be washed out?

any help is great.

Just use a little matching touch up paint on the bare metal and then use the bolts. Should not have an issue after that.

actually i drilled the hole smaller than the bolts, so the bolts are secured in the holes. if i paint the areas, the bolts will just scrap them as i tighten up.
