What I ended up doing was cover the plastic with some material from the bag that comes with the cover. I mention this on this following thread:
Nizmo Car Cover

The damage didn't look too bad and only noticeable up close.
Wow glad I'm not the only one. I'm going to see if I can't buff more of it out next time I detail the car. Mine wasn't even in the sun and still did it! Shitty oversight on the cover. I found plastic in general can do this and found examples while researching it. Thanks for the response
