    Happy hump day everyone!

    I have a month old 2019 TRD OR. After all the crappy weather in Dallas I was able to wash the truck for the first time. I noticed a weird texture stripe of paint at the bottom of the doors on both sides. (Pics attached)

    Has anyone else noticed this? Should I go back to the dealer on this? It’s weird. I wouldn’t think a mass produced paint shop would have this issue.

    Awesome. Thank you everyone. It seemed too uniform to be an issue but just checking.

    After 12 years, mine is still holding up great. I don't see any actual paint chipped at all!

    Checked out two new TRD Pro’s that were painted midnight black metallic, and the orange peel in the body panels looked almost like the rock guard areas. Terrible paint work these days with very thin clear coats.
