Anyone's mirror caps turning yellow?
I have the Union Jack caps on my 1 1/2+ year old car. I've noticed that the tops of the caps are yellowing in the parts that should be white. The undersides remain white.
Any suggestions? Is this fixable? A warranty issue or a normal wear and tear item?

I don't think there is anything you can do to stop the yellowing but they are under warranty against yellowing for 2 years so the dealer should replace them for free. I had mine replaced at around 2 years for free. It's been 2 years & the new ones are now yellowing so I guess this time I have to buy them. I am willing to pay for new ones every other time (if the new ones have a 2 year warranty) so I can have checkered mirrors

Turn it in
Back in my hotrod days, I had a friend who had a 57 Chevy...white with PURPLE AND WHITE alternating rolls tuck and roll interior, done by Ricky's in TJ. (Yeah, I'm dating myself). All us guys called the car "Circus Tent". That's why I call Minis with all that "stuff" by the nickname "Picadilly Circus".
You need to return the entire car to Picadilly Circus for a full refund.
Buy the circus ticket, take the ride.
Not really much of a problem. If that's your biggest problem, you have a nice car. Good luck.
