Rust in bay res

Hello, i have the following http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-519-EK. The two bolts inside are starting to rust. Do you suggest i should return it?

I would RMA it. They should be stainless or properly coated to avoid rusting.

If you've not owned it very long, RMA it.

What coolant were you using? the will probably be something in the manual for the res about only using a certain type of EK coolant. From a design POV that's pretty silly of them though, what are those? mild steel or chromed mild steel screws holding in a stainless steel plate? should have used a plexi plate.
