Default bottom of door not painted from factory?

I have a strange question I just recently picked up a 95 and the bottom of one of the doors was not completely painted(grey primer). The owner is the first owner and says it was never in an accident. The vin sticker is attached and matches the rest on the car. Is it possible he is telling the truth or does this sound suspicious? Anyone have anything like this on there door bottoms? Also where abouts are the stickers located on an sn95? Thanks

I would say that the guy lied to you, and for some reason the door was replaced. It would have never come from the factory like that. They use robots to paint these parts. Did you check carfax?

if your talking around the area where the rocker panel area is/ where the ground effects cover, it's possible, but I doubt it, a pic would be helpful

Well its the area where the win number attaches under the actual door. I don't have a picture. The car is immaculate everywhere else and appears to be the original paint with no over spray or anything anywhere which i can detect. The other side has like thin paint like you would see under the hood in some spots.
