I got p*ssed off and resprayed the whole thing! No amount of detailing or TLC will bring the paint back to it former glory, it's sad because it's such a nice colour.

It's a standard feature of the yellow

To be fair, no-one really notices but you as it's your pride & joy. I have seen some shockers though where the front an back bumpers look illuminous in comparison to the rest of the body. Just get some good protection on the paint work and it'll slow the process alot .
