    I bought the total chaos bed stiffener and the hardware looks to be zinc coated. Should I buy stainless hardware? anyone use the zinc coated bolts? what about the nylock nuts on the inside, are they rust free?Have they rusted over the years or do they still look new?

    Just spray them with some black paint, I used lock washers on the nuts on the inside.
