NOS or reproduction?

I bought these Nos door handles off of EBAY and I'm not so sure these are nos door handles. They have what looks like GM part numbers on them but they also have the number 9540 on each one and the letters cpcwith a bowtie that has kind of chisel marks over it. What do you guys think?

Re: NOS or reproduction?

How do they feel in hand, are they heavy or light? How does the chrome look? They may be a newer made gm handles

Re: NOS or reproduction?

The part numbers are correct and the box labels look as expected.
Do own search and see what you think. "nos door handles in box"
They are probably service replacement GM parts.

The chrome looks nice and they feel about the same weight as originals, The extra numbers on the had me baffled

Agreed that they are GM parts. They are not "NOS".
