White car is turning yellow!

It looks like it is mismatched paint since it appears that one panel is so affected where the rest is the normal color. If claying, water/alcohol rub down, and polishing does not get rid of it then you are most likely going to have to get the panel and any other yellow panels resprayed the proper color. It could also possibly be clearcoat failure on that panel due to an improper repair job or no clear was put on that particular panel. If it was just pollen and fallout adhering to your white paint over time then your entire car would be yellow and not just certain panels.

I guess ill attack it with clay/compound when I get home and see if I can get it to start coming up some. Can anyone reccomend some stuff I can get at an orielys or pepboys or one of those type stores? Ill swing it by a collision center on the ride home to see what they say also.
Thanks for all the input!

well you can see in the pictures you posted the difference. you can see it sitting in the driveway that its slightly off and then when its in the garage you can really tell. i had the same problem when i had my rear bumper done. outside the shop it looked perfect until i took it to a car wash one night and under the artificial lights, it really stood out.

could it be iron embeded in the clear? Never really seen such uniform discolouration before though...
would IronX help?
Couldn't hurt to try it since all owners of white cars should have it imo...
