I think the door was replaced. The black rubber is darker on the door than the rest of the car. The black around the window in the door is lighter than the black around the rear window.

The black around window will be darker since its tint thats part of window and not molding.

Your saying the door was replaced because the door handle and key hole is color matched?

It's hard to match it perfectly. It's an EG over 10 years old and the door is brand new. Give it time to blend.
