Hi. Why there is a lot of rust? Often it is necessary to go on water?

It's a mix of reasons, but mainly, its call living in the northeast. Salt on the roads my friend.

Napa delivered! Lifetime warranty and they come with a protective coating, should help with the rust.
They usually run for $230 per/cal with a core charge, but I got em for $116 fully loaded (pads and everything) through my job.
I even had the company mechanic and my boss, yes the golf superintendent, install them for free!

Fully loaded with NAPA premium pads.

Front left. Almost no pad left on one side. The difference in pad thickness of the front right side was even worst.

Drove it only a few miles home and there's a HUGE difference braking. Before it felt like I was trying to stop a 10ton semi.
Couldn't be happier. Will post some mounted pictures later.
 
Got my sliders yesterday:

Nicely done BAMF sliders, I went with the weld option, but thinking about bolting them on instead. Now I need to find a metal shop that will build me 6 plates and weld them to the sliders. Should be easy right?!!! I didn't want them to be permanent or put that much heat into the frame.

Next: Man-a-fre skid plate and Bamf LCA skids.
 
Looks great. You're doing all the right mods. Where didn't you get the leds for interior lighting?
