Yes, some of the used parts that I bought, namely the covers (from Technocraft) are beginning to yellow a bit. Think the Dinan Elbow and Goke CarbonTechnic (which primarily does this for racing applications) pieces are extremely high quality with very thick clearcoat and show no signs of this, in spite of tracking and a lot of spirited runs in twistys and high elevation changes (where temps get higher than the track).
