Default Any thoughts? Exhaust tips rattling 1990 EX Accord

My exhaust tips on my 1990 accord ex started rattling. The bolt on the back of them appears to be rusted and I can't tighten them. Any thoughts? The tips new from the dealer are $37 a piece which isn't too bad...I need some floor mats too. I have a cream interior but the mats are brown ( maybe from fading - probably started out black) Was that the factory color?

Get some PB Buster (better than WD-40) and soak those bolts in it...spray it all over them. Try to get them off after that. Then it's just a re-tightening job. Maybe get some new ones since those seem to be so rusted?
