Default Rust on bumper

I Put this chrome bumper on my 1996 f150 XL two years ago, it was off of a used truck. I have noticed that it is starting to bubble and rust on one section. Does any one know how to fix this and to prevent future rust.

pop off that pretty black step cover and you'll find a bunch more rust.

the only way to fix rusted chrome is have it stripped and re-chromed or buy a new one.
