Help wiht exposed metal parts
I scratched up my muffler a few months ago... i didn't think much of it, but now it's a little rusted up. I hope it's not too late to fix it... is there something I can paint it over with that will stop the rusting? Or do I need to bring it back to my dealer?

Your dealer probably won't be able to do anything other than charge you for a new muffler, since it is not defective, I don't see the point.
You do have a few possible choices though........
You can go to an automotive supply store (Pep boys etc.) and get either engine block paint or brake caliper paint, get the one with the highest temp rating.
The other alternative is at any good hardware store, it is a high temperature bbq grill paint.
Just clean up the rust and paint.

Have fun in life, doing whatever you do whenever you do it.
