Question for my painters

I've been in the process of painting my fender molding. It fell off some how and the replacement I have needed to be painted. I completley striped down the molding until it was all white. I sprayed it with white, let it dry, sanded, sprayed it, sanded, sprayed it and let it dry for 3 days. I then hit it with an acrylic enamel a few times, it looked great. I let it sit for a few days to let the paint cure... I went to handle it today and the shine was maintained and was pretty much done but it wasnt white anymore, it turned a yellowish color.... what the f happened lol... I figured I tackel this myself, its just the piece on the fender. Can any painters outhere give me tips? Like what paint to buy, I dont need an exact match, it's just that piece and it was looking pretty good until I looked at it today.

Hello. I am new here. I have a 1999 3.2 TL and it has 92,000 miles on it. The mechanic noted that it has a front shock absorber leak and price would be $220 to fix and also a transmission solenoid leak that would be $330 to fix. I have always had a very small what looked like oil leak after parking the car but thinking all along it might be the transmission solenoid leak. I always had the dealer service the car and they never mentioned anything and this is first time I have this deal alternative which is a shop that works on japaneze cars only. I had oil changed and transmission fluid changed, not flushed. Are these two things something that needs to be fixed right away? Thanks.
