DO NOT ROCK TRIM RINGS ON SALTY ROADS
won't last a single day. seriously. not even a day.
well. maybe a day. if you cleaned them afterward. but not two.
haha learned this the hard way now i have salt spots on my new trim rings, i swear though the salt was only on there from over night
they dont bad enough to remove though..... going to try to get some dust caps.

I went the other day but they only had two and one was dull as compared to it's shiny companion...

Get some Simichrome Polish. If the salt hasn't burned all the way through the chrome plating, this will shine it up a treat. And you could probably shine up the dull one from the store too.
