Paint finish different on different panels

[s2ulk]

Hi all, I’ve noticed that my driver door on my 2016 T6 is a very slightly darker shade of Cherry red to the sliding door. I can’t tell any accident damage but haven’t had it from new so can’t be sure. However, I’ve noticed quite a few T6s where the doors also appear a slightly different shade. Is this common? Are the doors perhaps painted at a different time to the sliders?

If it's not obvious to the eye, you could measure the paint depth. A decent detailer or bodyshop ought to be able to check this for you.

I have to say my cherry red looks different all the time but I’m sure it’s all original. Sometimes the bumper looks a completely different shade at a certain angle. The next day the door looks different but I’ve measure the paint and it’s all within oem spec.
