sun damage maybe is it parked in a garage our outside? Plastics don't like uv rays at all have snowmobiles and have them covered except the skies they get brittle and crack after a couple of seasons. Posting come pics could help with the diagnosis.

I'll take some pictures and post them tomorrow.

Common issue. If you have removed and installed yours as much as i have it could be caused by over tightening. You dont need a lot of torque on those M4 bolts.

That just might be it. I removed the inner panels and top cover than really tightened the screws when I put them back on. Thanks for all your help.
