I'm pretty sure the original foot peg support mounts should be parkerized on a 59 xlh, but I've seen "restored" pics showing both cad plated & parkerized, are either one correct? Looks like all the 59 xlch's have the parkerized peg support brackets, just trying to figure out if I leave them as is (cad plated) or strip and parkerize.
