Default yellowish after grill removal

Ok I removed my grill on my 99 Z, you know the black ugly one. Well after getting it off the paint underneith has a yellowish tint to it. I washed it and waxed it, is there a way to get rid of the yellow tint? I'm eventually going to paint the inside satin black and install a billet grill but till then I've got a yellow nose

yellow nose sucks.. haven't had that problem with mine and nor do I know an ectual solution to help you. I got so sick of seeing those holes and didn't want to pay someone to fill them in and was too lazy to do myself I put my ugly grille back on for the time being

i think the the bumper cover is yellow before it is painted over so it may have wore through the paint

Actually it looks like the yellow tint has disappeared.. that's wierd. Could the sunlight have helped it? I don't know.. it was there last night waxed it and washed it (not necessarily in that order) and it was yellow. Look at it today at 5:30 after work and it looks normal.

It's because the weather couldn't get to it the same way as the rest of the paint. The same thing that happens when you take a decal or emblem off that's been there for awhile.
