Its going to take a lot of work, but you can reverse this.

1st use a rubbing compound to, in effect, sand the chemical stain off the top layer of plastic. Then you have to polish it with a plastic polish. Best done with a machine, not by hand, and avoid heat!

I believe you killed the film that provides UV protection to the plastic. You will have to repeat every now and then to avoid a haze now that this film is gone.
