Default Wrinkling paint on Rear Bumper!

Purchased a used 2009 Lexus ES 350 with 80k mileage with it from Toyota last year's November. 2 weeks ago it started raining for a bit and I noticed my rear bumper's paint is wrinkling. This is showing on the left side of the bumper but not on the right.

Was the car repainted previously? Usually it shouldn't wrinkled at all.

Will be contacting Toyota's pre-owned sales manager and see what he can do about it.

Attached are the wrinkles from the bumper. Not sure if the rain worsened it.

As of now, the weather is starting to get sunnier and wrinkles have shrunk a bit but it's still very noticeable. Any suggestions?

Definitely been repainted which is not a bad thing if its done right but that is far from being done right.
