Exactly. You'll cause more problems trying to get it fixed. Believe me. I've had to do it. It's not worth it

Another thread around here somewhere that has different members posts pics of the ugly seam sealer. Some trucks look good and some look, well, like the pic the OP posted.

Does anyone make a trim piece to sit in that groove on the roof?

They all look like that. It's seam sealer, every truck has it in the roof seams. Do you make a habit of staring at your roof? If not just drive the truck and enjoy it.

They all don't look that way. I'm just asking. It's the first new truck I have ever bought.
