I have a Lomax Stance in black urethane. I see the issues in your picture and the one I have has no color shading difference, nor the lines in the top panel.

It looks like maybe it was stored incorrectly? Is it used or was it supposed to be new?

I bought mine directly from the company.

Did you buy direct from Lomax? If so, I would call them, send them pictures, and ask for an exchange. They are pretty good at standing by their product if something isn't right.

If you bought through a third-party, I think it still drop ships from Lomax.

I ended up getting it from an authorized dealer on their website. Yeah, I was a little disappointed when I unfolded it and put it on the bed. Pictures don't do it justice, very noticeable to me. After posting, came to realize those line marks on the top panel are also on the bottom panel. Depending on lighting and angle is when it is most noticeable. Going to call Lomax as soon as they open up to see what they say.

 

I see the lines on the back panel as well but don't see them on my version. It almost looks like matte black in the middle and urethane on the other two panels. Lomax is generally good to work with based on posts on the forum. They should make this right in some way. Keep us posted.

 

Yup, pretty noticeable depending on the lighting and angle. I kind of thought the same thing, like it was two different finishes. The middle panel looks less shiny, a little duller and is much smoother to the touch. The top and bottom feel more rough and textury, if that's a word. lol

I called Lomax first thing this though. Gentleman I spoke with was very pleasant to speak with. He told me to email warranty with the serial number, pictures and all my info. My gut feeling tells me they will make it right but will keep all posted.

 

Hmm, I've had my Weathertech for over 2 years now and I haven't noticed any of those discolorations. I really love this cover. (Incidentally, mine is a Lomax Max black made by Access in ND). I talked with them yesterday and will get another one for my new R1T truck.

 

Agreed, I love the cover and the look it gives the truck. Especially after doing all the research I've done. Just a little disappointed with what I received but hopeful that Lomax will sort things out.

 

The difference in the shades most likely different time in the manufacturing of the panels. The scratches look to be in the same place on both. This also could have happened at the factory when moving them down the line.

 

Here's what the black urethane looks like on my truck. Just from your pics, it definitely looks to me like matte in the middle and urethane front/rear.

 

Agri Cover / Lomax is definitely a great company. Called them earlier this morning, asked me to email pictures along with all info.

Response from them just now ...
I have requested replacement parts to be shipped out within 72 hours.

 

Nice. It is great to see a company that stands behind their products.
