Default Confession to make: RUST

So the pictures of my truck are from Nov. 2011 when I bought it. Unfortunately, in the nearly four years since that time I have not only the usual Dodge hood and roof clear coat peeling, but all four wheel wells are bubbled and rusting. (Has some other rust but the worst of it is wheel wells, though the bumper is pretty bad too.)

If I get motivated maybe I'll post some pictures up of the rust.

Anyway, I am considering these to make the truck look a little better. Thoughts?

Wait, you are considering to leave the rust and that will look good from an aesthetic point of view?

Repair it, or at least remove it and seal the good metal up. Just cause you can't see it doesn't make it go away.

It's a rustrod! Yeah, Fix it before it get's worse. They make repair sections to replace the rot on the wheel wells.
