Dinan yellowing

Hi my dinan CAI and strut bar carbon fiber is turning yellow is that regular or is my stuff defective. 1300 for the intake and 600 for the bar then the bunch of hours it took to install them I think they should be better but maybe i'm wrong.

CF can do that when exposed to heat. Doesn't affect the structure. Motorcycles get that a lot on weathered CF parts. Heat, sunlight, pollution all do it.
