Driver's side interior door handle not like the others?

[chobbs42]

My daughter pointed out something I had not noticed about my new (to me) 2012 Genesis this morning. My driver's side interior door handle and lock button are a chrome finish, but the other three handles in the car are all a brushed/satin finish.

A search of the forum didn't reveal others asking about it. Do I have something unique? Did a previous owner get the handle replaced?

Now that she pointed it out, of course, I can't not notice it when I get in the car

Get a CARFAX report to see if it was in an accident unless your are the original owner of the vehicle.

Did a previous owner get the handle replaced?

Most likely. But not sure if one was replaced, or three were replaced. The handles cost about $30-$35 each.

Thanks all; I did get the CarFax when I purchased (CPO) and it was clean.

I wonder how hard replacement would be. I'm not that deeply OCD, but I might swap it if it's simple. I probably wouldn't pay labor charges to get it done.
