Good thread Pete.
I reckon leave it the way it is. Let it stand out. Thats what is good about having something unusual, it declares itself as different, and therefore gives a depth of difference to other machines. All legs the same would be boring. I can understand people going from say silver legs on a Indianna Jones to gold legs, or standard silver legs on a machine to beautiful chrome, powder coated black n shiny from boring flat black, and even adding say gold legs to a theatre of magic instead of silver then wrapping gold chains around the legs etc, all good moves in my opinion.
Even changing black stock legs to chrome is fine, or even say putting red legs on a spiderman, with some black web work, all great ideas. Having everything stock can be boring, but changing the emerald green of The Wizard of Oz, would be a mistake. Let it stay a WOZ, straight from the factory in all its beauty. Let it be different and stand out, which is why they probably went that way to start with. Shld be a very very nice machine for sure. Well done on ordering one.
