Question with interior door handle.

Hey guys, I just bought an 08 TL base and 2 of the interior door handles seems like the "metal wrapping" is bubbling on the inside (side closest to the outside).

1. Is this normal?
2. Easy fix?

Thanks!

Seems to be a common issues with Hondas/Acuras. Have the issue with a 92 Accord we have in the family. Another member mentioned they had the issue on their Honda as well.

It seems to be a fairly common problem. It is an easy fix. Just strip off the old and paint it any color you want.
