alternator color HELP =)
hey everyone, my friends dad (who builds custom alternators) is building me an alternator (Around 150 amps i think). hes lettin me get it powder coated for free and i need some help pickin the color. im considering blue, red, and lime green. i may also be able to have it chromed but im not sure. i dont have any other colored parts in the engine bay (except for a blue and a red power wire) and i dont think i plan on any other custom parts.
if you guys could rate from 1-4 which u think would look best( red blue lime green or chrome) that would be awsome. or at least ur first two choices. thanks everyone!

Re: alternator color HELP =)
My vote goes for chrome.
The rest depending on the color of your car. Or you might consider a more neutral color like black.

Re: alternator color HELP =)
Not to mention white and chrome looks really really sharp.
Tell you the truth since you have a white car, my second vote would go for white.

Re: alternator color HELP =)
woohoo so when i picked it up today i was pleasently surprised that it was a much redder red ha. the pic that my friend sent originally(the one posted) made it look a little duller. its as red as red gets. with the chrome pulley, it looks so nice =) i put it in and it looks great. one problem. now i want to paint more parts in my engine! haha. and if anyone does need or want one let me know. the guy works for a custom parts manufacturer. i believe its called tough stuff or something like that. based in cleveland, they made alternators for jay leno and brittany spears (so she could run a blow dryer in her car) ha.
ill get a good pic up sometime this week
