A bit odd, perhaps, nevertheless, that is what appears to have happened.

It is on a UT 1:18 model of a yellow Ferrari F355 GTS.

Can the whitening be remedied, or a replacement screen found?

Advice?

Picture is not fantastic, but the whitening is visible.

You need to ask the seller about this. If the discoloration is on the surface of the plastic it can be removed by careful polishing. If not then it's a chemical stain of some kind and nothing can be done except replace the windows. If you know someone with access to a vacuum-forming machine this may be possible.

I thought that it was due to the model being left in bright sun light too long causing it to go milky.
