Door Handles sinking in???? - Pic
Hey,
I was just wondering if anyone else noticed the area around the door handles sinking in? When the car is real clean you can see it more. Whatever is reflecting against that area becomes warped. This seems to be happening around all 4 door handles. I don't really drive anyone but myself so excessive door slamming can't be the cause.
I guess it might be normal, but check it out. Not sure how good the pic came out.

It should be normal. The door handles are like that on my car... I read somewhere that when they make the door panel they press out that area where the door handles are so it basically looks like it got smashed in. Thats also why if you shave the door handles its really hard to get it completely smooth

Same way on mine, and a lot of cars with flatter door panels. A coworker's H2 is the same way.
