Default Headlight oxidization?

Alright so recently my S's headlights have had these weird lines of what I can only describe as oxidization going across them. It's like a squiggly line going from side to side. Really hard to describe, and hard to see in pics.

Any of you guys experienced in working with plastic or headlight restoration? It doesn't clear up when I wash it, and rubbing it with a microfiber towel doesn't seem to affect it... could it potentially be inside of the plastic?

They're OEM AP1 headlights. Both headlights have it. I can try to get pics to show what I'm describing.

Do you have a clear bra?

We can look at them if you come out to the IE meet this Wednesday!

No sir, the only clear bras I've used are when I'm undressing women.

Dude, YES! It's... squiggly! And I don't know why!

Nis0ak/Sam: Alright man, I'll send you a text and see if we can coordinate.

Quagmire: If you're at the meet tonight I'll show you the squiggly lines. They're so weird.
