    I've had my truck for about 7 months and I've noticed some fingerprinting on the cap on the tailgate and on the rail. Anyone else have this issue? The color is slightly lighter where the fingerprints are.

    Thanks

    Grabbed this picture in full sun..and yes have already thought about wiping it off..

    After I took the picture ran it through car wash and same results on tailgate.

    Just curious if anyone else has had similar issue.
