Default Stripes turning yellow!!!!!

I recently deleted my cats and the mufflers under the sills but left the muffler in the back and I have now noticed that the stripes on my car are turning yellow. How do I get that off? Its a blue and white GTS by the way.

Thanks in advance for the help.

It could be the paint work burning slightly, try buffing it out first.

Try a product like Poorboys APC. If that doesnt work, go w/ something like professional polish, which is a chemical cleaner, so non abrasive. I'm sure one of the two will work.

We'll assume that you're talking about the rear of the car below the spoiler. With the cats gone that is probably fuel yellowing the white.

My guess is damage is permanent.

I get lawn clippings and black carbon spots all over the rear of my GTS. No yellowing yet, but I have cats.

I have had the carbon spots and the other stuff that sits on the rear, but the yellowing has only started since I removed the cats.

I have the same problem with my B/W. Mequiers scratch-x takes it right off.
