R56 JCW Wing

Has anybody "refurbished" an R56 JCW wing? Mine is in very good shape, but I'd like to get it to just about showroom condition.
No gouges/scrapes/scratches or damage at all. Just some silver paint missing from normal wear/tear of being on a vehicle for years.
There appears to be a coating on the CF that seems to have a bit of a yellowing to it. Not horrible, but close up it's noticeable. Ideas on how to refresh it?

TIA!

There are many "ways" or technics that you can re condition it.
Sandpapers,wax,etc etc.
I would go to a professional detailer and do my job. He knows what he has to do
