Just to add to the above...skinned parts are quite rich in resin content, so they are quite prone to resin shrinkage and the print-through effect mentioned by Hanaldo, with little exposure to the elements
Overall, they aren't the most resilient to the effects of sun exposure.
If you post-cure them prior to performing the final flatting and polishing work, the shrinkage can be accelerated, which should bring on the rippled print-through surface you've experienced. You can then look to flat this back and finish the parts when the resin is in more hardened state.
Coating with an auto-quality clear coat will help maintain their appearance beyond this, as already mentioned
