The film can be removed at any time (recommended that the pro does this though). Because the film is clear, it cannot discolor... and because the film is clear it also allows the paint underneath to fade at the same rate as the rest - more or less. I'm not sure if they put UV protection in the film. I tend to keep my film protected with wax, so it should be receiving roughly the same UV as the rest of the paint. Keeping in mind I have Alpine White. But I have seen a black M3 that had film on it for a few years, and you couldn't tell.
