Polishing the alternator will suck lol.. I started to polish mine but it was just too much. The metal is a little different than most. IDK what it is but it's extremely hard compared to mounts/etc.

The mounts on the engine side will look cool. I polished my drivers side one but I have the cast iron mount on the passenger side so idk how I feel about one polished and one painted.
