Caliper guide pins corroded with rust PICS

Hi all,
Just wanted to share these pics of what the caliper guide pins looked like after 40k miles and 3 years of service. I bought new sets of the pins and 2 new bushings too. Looking pretty bad for something off an '08
I've added the part numbers for your shopping pleasure. I think the bolts are like $6 or so each. There was almost a 2 week wait for these guide pins. Don't know if their running low on 'em or if the Tsunami had something to do with it? Who knows.
Brake jobs aren't always just slapping in a new set of pads, you never know what will come up as you take things apart. If the rust gets bad enough on those pins, the calipers WILL seize!
