I bought this jetski a couple of years ago from a fellow member. The fairings / silver panels on each side of the front part of the ski rattle really loud when at idle. It's not a major issue but I've decided it bugs me enough that this year I'm going to fix it. I plan to take it apart and add some rubber gaskets to quiet them down. If I press my hand on them or use my knee I can keep them quiet. This is cross posted on the https://www.pwcforum.com forum.

I'm looking for advice on how to tear this apart and fix the rattle. I'm certain others have faced this problem and probably have some good solutions. This is the first model year for the redone front end on the fx ho cruiser so it's not surprising there were a few minor issues.
