I had Ed from pipedreams make me a cover and it looks great. E-mail him and I'm sure he can send you some pics with ideas.

Count me as another fan of Ed's alt covers. Great looking, good solid mounting, and easy to install. Well worth the price. Plus, fantastic service from a forum vendor.

Just wanted to let everyone know, we are in the final stages of putting together a deal to produce chrome alternators at a price you have never seen before for a Chrome C6 alternator...

We are looking at mid to late November for it's release

Peace

Another option might be to take it apart and send the casing out to be chromed. They aren't all that hard to take apart and put together. If you're unsure of how to do it, you could probably pay a local rebuilder a few bucks to do the re-assemble.
