Front Right indicator grill knocked loose.
Discussion
Now have no idea as to what caused it but something has clearly clouted the front right indicator on the 430 and knocked the grill back and loose. So of course have now got to re-affix it in place. There is a small crack in the clean lens about 3/4" long probably from some impact. After cleaning off some black body sealant am assuming that that is how the grill is fixed in place so will need to drive int town and get a tube of sealant to reattach it.
While the grill is off removed the air filter and gave it a wash out. Looked in the "Bible" for the way to clean it and found nothing mentioned so just washed it with some fairy liquid and water. It's been drying over night so can refit this morning. Will also see about fitting the DRL's I have ready for her re-registration here and fit the regulation number plate mount they use here so will take the opportunity this offers to relocate the plate lower and off the grill which should help air flow and although it has not cause issues in our mid 30 temps we are approaching the warm part of the year so temps over 40 degrees are on the cards so every little will help.
