Default side mirrors faded

Hi all
The side mirrors on my car are pretty heavily faded (almost pink). Seems like it's single stage paint rather than clear coat. Can anybody confirm this? Is it possible to restore this paint with a polishing compound, or am I stuck with a repaint. Suggestions?
Thanks

NFR is a tinted clear coat. Polish away.
