Default Found that pesky buzz

Rattles, buzzes and hums drive me crazy, especially on something new. A loud buzz recently showed up on the SG when engine rpm was passing 2,700. Thought it might be the gas cap since I have read about this problem, so I tightened it up. No change.
Finally parked it and revved it up to the 2700 and started feeling around the front end. Wires, *****, buttons, etc. Grabbed the headlight and bingo. The accent trim ring was loose and that was the source. Tightened it up and buzz is gone.
