Looks like some type of adhesive/sealant....but also in photo #3 it looks like it was speckled all over the body below the light and someone attempted to clean it off (streaks on the left side)

Anyone noticed these installation scratches underneath their rear taillight? They are fairly deep. December 2022 Production...

In your third picture I can see reflection off of center "scratches" that make it look "bubbled", like spray splatter. Did you have it undercoated/rustproofed?

Took the lights off, it's some type of glue, very hard to get off. The paint on the Maverick is really thin. It lifted some paint when I tried to remove it... So, will leave it on..
