Tiger Striping on Plastic trim

Have a 07' and the fender flares and the front bumper are starting to get this tiger striping affect to them. It really hard to describe, have any of you have this problem? Did the dealer take care of it?

the trim is under warranty and I believe there is something wrong in the resins causing this. not looking for way to cover it up, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this..

Try this... lemme know what you think. No it not a reflection, it actually discoloration of the plastic.

Do you by any chance live near a chemical plant? Rain water contamination?

dont know if this helps but yep, I get this whenever it rains - exactly the same effect but mine is to do with the stuff I use to keep the black placky bits looking good. Just takes a rub over with more of the spray to fix.
If you dont apply anything to yours then it is more of a worry.
If yours is for the same reason then given the amount of rain you get compared to me it will become annoying and require a change of applicant!
good luck!
