I am considering a either a Sting Gray or white JLR. Early white fenders and grills used to turn yellow. Are the white plastic parts like the fenders and grill still prone to turning yellow on newer models? Has this issue been fixed?

I still see occasional reports of it happening. It's also been reported as an issue with Sting Gray, it's just harder to see with Sting Gray. If it helps any, my grill was repainted three years to fix the problem and it still looks good.

Looks great!! Is there a Toy Barn in MO or did you pick this up in Ohio?
i was looking all over for a fully loaded in 6 speed manual and they had it at the Toy Barn in OH. Flew-in in the morning, they picked me up in a Porsche 911 turbo and drove it back home in the afternoon (the Jeep that is;)).

My ‘21 JLUR was built in August and had the yellowing fender and a little on the grill. My dealer is currently working on a fix.

Last year on my 2018 Rubicon Instead of repainting mine they just ordered me a new grill and painted it white. Less labor involved they said it was cheaper to get the new grill and just paint it white what's I was okay with that then having the sand mine and repaint it. Really surprised it's doing it already though grill or fenders on a 21 that just got built you think they would have fixed that problem in the last 3 years

I agree. that is what I will insist on. I don't want them to need my Jeep for days while they fix mine. They will order new and repaint.

It definitely seems like an issue with the painting process. Seems like they should have been able to figure it out by now.
