Have a problem with my daughters 2013 GD i30. On the rear passenger door handle there is bubbling. It looks like it could be the paint protection lifting. She had an added Extra with the dealer ( X-Pack Vehicle Protecter ). Looking at the warranty exclusions it could be a waste of money as it states " does not cover lifting of the clear coat ". Has anybody else had this problem? Cant get into Hyundai for a few weeks as my Daughter will be away with the car. All comments welcome. Imgur: The magic of the Internet

Paint code is RY7 . Is the handle much problem to remove ? I cant see HY being interested seeing they get an outside company to do it, they will probably say all claims are with the company Motorone who do the X Pack. Thanks for trying for me. I will see if the daughter is in and get the vin number.
Happening on a couple of my daughter's handles on her Accent too.As she has a couple of small scrapes from bogan drivers in Darwin car parks she's not too worried about it. Car is pretty much 5 years old too. I peeled back the clear bits and you can hardly notice it now. As long as it's only the door handles she can live with it for now.
JB,wreckers or "The touch up guys ", ? ?

Did you have to peel the entire handle, and did you just use a plastic scraper ?

As far as i recall the door handle can be removed by taking screws/bolts out from the open door edge.No need to remove panels etc
Thank you Gonz & Dazz, Certainly an easy way to fix the problem . Looks like the last links could be ok for the rear but being chrome I would have to fit them to all four doors but the fronts look like they would not accomodate the keyless entry square button. I suppose I could try to cut out a small square but it could look a bit rough. Appreciate your help.
