Default S4 Mirror Caps

So I bought a set of no name mirror caps before the winter and put them on my car. I barely drove the car all winter and I've been inspecting their condition. It looks as if the cap surface was bubbling up. I took them off my car and thought I should just sand them down and see if I can repaint them. As I'm sanding them down I discover that these caps are not painted but rather covered with a metallic film. Underneather they are just white plastic. Has anyone else had this problem during the winter? If not what manufacturer are yours?

Anyone got anything for sale?

Damn thats really random, I was looking around for a set of mirror caps for my car but it looks like i'll have to be a little more careful if I even find any. I may just replace the mirrors.

Make sure that they're not that Chinese crap on Ebay. I've heard good things about Inpro and Hagus.
