Wow. I was thinking about pulling the trigger on the F1 as well. I wouldn't want the rust problem though. Please post if this gets resolved.

The F1 is a great cover. If the only issue is some rust on two rivets, I wouldn't let that deter me from purchasing one. You could always drill the rivets out and replace them with aluminum or stainless ones. Or you could coat them with plasti dip. If they are already rusted, you could shoot them with some rust converter and touch up paint.

Ya but you spend that much money on a new cover you should have to do any of that. Plus you can buy an undercover flex for less and not have to worry about that.
