Default Door speakers...........

I have some rust coloured marks on both of my door speakers. Are they known to rust or is this something odd?
How do I remove the speaker covers

I have some on my driver side. They come off very easy if you take off the door panel. After the door panel is off then you bend about 6 tabs and the grill slides off. At that point I would imagine you could spray it with some paint and throw it back on.

Try some simple green first. I had some orange colored specs on mine as well. But it wasn't rust! Maybe the previous owner was am Orange Crush drinker?
