Found this info on this site, thought it would be pretty interesting for everyone as well as myself.
http://www.ehow.com/how_4889277_paint-your-alternator.html How to Paint Your Alternator Paint Your AlternatorHow to Paint Your AlternatorUser-Submitted Article Changing the color of your alternator is really easy. It will dramatically change the look under the hood. .Difficulty: Moderate Instructions.Things You'll Need: Alternator Brake cleaner Paint Small Paint brush 1 STEP 1: Remove alternator from vehicle. Follow instructions in your vehicle's manual. 2 STEP 2: Clean the alternator with the Brake Cleaner and a rag. Take your time here. The cleaner it is, the nicer the paint job will come out in the end. 3 STEP 3: Using a small paint brush (I used a 3/8") start to paint the alternator. Be sure to get in between all the fins and curves. Wait for it to fully dry. 4 STEP4: Reapply a second coat. This will assure that everything is covered uniformly. This will also make the paint a little more durable. 5 STEP 5: Reinstall the alternator (after it has dried) into the vehicle. Be sure to install it correctly. Now step back and enjoy the work you just did all by yourself! -------------------- From Japan to Texas my st202 follows me.
