Ok that's it. Now I am sure hyundai's plastic and color quality is not that good as I thought.

I have had many problems.

1. Steering wheel peeling off and replaced by warranty

2. Front light scratched still considering options what to do

3. Roof and hood color problem and repainted by me.

Now the front left door handle is peeling off and when you touch it is like a razor and I cut everyday my fingers.

Anybody knows if this part will fit, I bought my car in 2010:

You should be able to get that handle under warranty if still current.

Now it's not under warranty. I had 3 years warranty +2 for mechanical problems. Now I am on 4th year already.

Ok wasn't sure on warranty for Greece.

The handle in the link looks right but can't say 100%

My driver's side handle had the same problem and I bought this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/201106320673?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 and it fit perfectly. It looks the same as the one you bought. About 10 min to change as well.

I cut my little pinky on the interior driver's door handle of my FD, but it was still under warranty and replaced without question.
Also,  :wttc: to HENFOR, another Perthite (who sounds like he might have a Ford or two).

Today I replaced the door handle. As bonus I added the "auto mirror folding" mod.
The cost was about 15€ for the door handle and 40€ for the mod including shipping cost. I found both at ebay.
Installation was pretty ease.
Here are some pics:

Good job :goodjob2: The Hyundai chrome definitely isn't anything to rave over and it hasn't improved in the newer GD models either, I've already had the front chrome grill replaced after it started peeling away :disapp:
