Discolored filon panel

I have a 2018 Sunset Trail 210FK that has the rear outside wall and outside of door that are turning a tan/brownish color. The rest of the trailers walls are white as they should be.When I purchased it at the end of 2019 everything was white. I have tried cleaning and waxing to no avail. Crossroads wont do anything about it of course but does anyone have any suggestions to get the original color back? Thanks.

If you tried polishing and buffing you may be out of luck.
Only other solution maybe a paint job on those pieces.

That will be my last solution. Still working on it. Although I would only paint the door. That really stands out against the rest of the side which is pure white. The back I can let go because it is discoloring uniformly and it is the rear. Kinda looks like it was made that way. LOL

Here's an option that I found online. Don't know if you tried this or not.

If the panel is fiberglass vs painted, experiment w/ a commercial wax remover or ammonia, under presumption that it is the wax/ polish that is turning yellow?
