I waxed my truck 2 days after getting it home, and noticed a raised line about 4 to 5 inches long. It is under the paint right in the middle of the two heat extracting vents, and to the the very front of vents. As I waxed I kept trying to rub it out until I realized it must be in the fiberglass. Is this just a point of structural support making this area raised or what? Hopefully this is normal. So I guess I want to know do others have this on their trucks, or should I check into it?

I have the hood graphics, never noticed anything showing up through the graphics.

I'm just curious if this is something that might get a crack in it or may be nothing. Just annoys me with a new vehicle and all. I don't want **** around with a dealer getting it fixed, but it is pretty noticeable.

Got the hood graphics as well so can't comment but a picture of the defect may help the diagnosis :)

definitely post a pic and I'll check on my truck, I haven't noticed one so i'm inclined to say no. The paint is definitely not perfect on these trucks, I have 3 TINY spots that missed the blue but still have clear coat, it's pretty weird. They are small though and 99.9% of people wouldn't see them even if they were washing the truck so I'm not worried about it
