So, as I was driving into the underground parking I was a little too close on the passenger side and ended up hitting my mirror slightly and pushing it in a bit. Now there's no gouges or anything but there is a couple spots of yellow paint that transferred from the concrete wall.

What's the best product to use or method to remove it from my black plastic mirrors without discoloring or scuffing the plastic up?

Thanks.

I'd try some polish, if that doesn't do it, step to a low abrasive rubbing compound.....

Big question...
Do you have painted mirrors or textured black plastic mirrors?

I know you said black plastic, but that could be the painted black plastic covers.

I do have some meguiars ultimate compound, I could give that a shot first, just give it a light rub with that stuff. And just the normal textured black plastic tow mirrors.
