| Ya, mine did the same as well. The guy at the shop even warned me about it when i was buying them, so i don't think there is any prevention or fix. Sorry dude. |

| I have noticed that leaving your stuff in the sun will "yellow" most anything that in is dirty water. The people at my shop warned against getting anything white areound here. |

| My Sphynx are still white, however the glue used to hold some of the pieces together turned yellow. Last I heard, LF has changed the glue that they use for this process to eliminate the color change. |

Don't know, my stitchings broke after only a month of riding. So when I get my replacements, I'll keep an eye out.  |
