    Got a few bullet holes in the panel near the TRD sticker and wondering about future rust issues. Like the look but concerned it will begin to corrode....yes I have sprayed with a rust inhibitor.

    Would prefer,to keep the holes if maintenance will keep the rust at bay.

    Yes
    Stick some gum in the hole. Then tape over it with duct tape. They have a lot of colors nowadays so you may be able to find a good match for your paint. Good luck.
