The water and salt spots from driving in rain, snow, water and salt mixture on roads that result from improper design on hood and engine compartment without weatherstrip seal. The two pieces flimsy plastic, in front and on the left and right on the hood lock lever, do not prevent water and salt from spraying into compartment on highway speed. In some pictures of this album, you can see the brown/orange rust on the nut and bolt, and materials that prone to rust. I tried to clean the inner edge of the hood, and it was terrible however the paint protects those areas.
