Unhappy 2015 IS 250 Side Mirror paint wrinkling!!!

Hey everyone! Posted this in the IS forums and I'll post here as well.
Need some opinions on this situation.

Just came home and was surveying my car and side mirror looked a bit weird. Apparently looks like the paint is wrinkling and going "inwards" on the mirror. Absolutely nothing hit the mirror, and no scratches are showing. I've never had this happen in all the cars I've owned so this is new to me and I'm wondering if Lexus Warranty covers this. I'm actually due to return my car from its lease within 2-3 months.

This is a 2015 Lexus IS 250 F Sport which is on a lease. I'm in Virginia and it has been raining the past few days as well. Idk if that information is useful but I wanted to provide it anyway.

I've attached the pictures. It is currently night here, so the picture quality won't be great but if anyone can give advice on how or why this happened and what I can even do, that would be great!

Thanks a ton!

It almost looks like when you touch very fresh paint and leave a finger print on it. Weird.
