What color were the rear pegs on the H2A? When I stripped the ones I'm working on they looked like the same Army green looking color that the lock washer for the front brake lever bolt is. Or were they natural finish?

I have some zinc-chromate primer I used to use on the inside of aircraft panels that should be about the same shade of green.

Never EVER seen one in Passivate before :shock: - They are usually flashed chrome :think:

I'm in the U.K. at the moment so things are megga stressy tidying up loose ends . . . communication for all things and message boards are a low priority . . . However, I'm picking your bodywork up in the morning and it should be in a container heading of the U.S. in the next 36 hours 8-)
