Question What is this discoloration on my door handle?

During a recent paint correction my detailer noticed an imperfection that would not come out. I looked closely, and it looks to be under the clear coat and/or paint? Strangely enough, I can see the pearl effects on top of the discoloration.

It wasn't something I noticed until he pointed it out, and I've had the car for about 6 months. I probably won't bother to get it fixed because it will more than likely involve a repaint, but I think it's worth mentioning to the dealership to have it on record.

Although I am still very curious, anyone have a clue what it is?

Looks like the paint sprayer just missed that section. Pretty poor QC on the factories part for letting a suppliers part pass inspection with something that obvious.
