Mostly displaying Matt's handy work on the relay cover and the fog lights I put in several months ago and the Delteq system that was put on MANY months ago.

Awesome man. I love seeing the 93's get some love. And that hood...mmmmmmm
Btw, if you do wanna add some bling to that alternator, I've had great experience with Powermaster alternators. I've got a 140-amp chrome unit that I use...looks slick .
Keep it man, you're giving me something to aspire to with my 93
very nice dude, but that alternator needs to shine a lil more lol j/k
I was thinking the same thing. It is pretty easy to remove it and take it apart for polishing. The two halves seperate and it looks great with just a little attention on a wire wheel. I cleaned mine up last fall, it looks new now.
You can also use a wire wheel in a hand drill to shine up the bracket and any other visible parts.
Looks good, though!

Yep, that's the last 'ugly spot'. I've been for YEARS for that dang alternator to die so I could buy the 140amp chromed PowerMaster alternator ($$$). It just won't die!
TraceZ:
What wire wheel are you referring to? Do you have a part number or will any old wire brush drill attachment work? I wouldn't mind taking a crack at the alternator and bracket myself. Although I have been thinking about moving the alternator...so I'm still not sure about that one.

That's nothing a little "accident" couldn't take care of

I have a cheap bench grinder down in my work room. I removed one of the stone wheels and replaced it with a wire wheel. I think I got the stuff at Harbor Freight Tools. I also got an assortment pack of little wire wheels for my hand drill. There were different sizes and shapes all in one package. Very cheap and handy items to have around. They work great for cleaning up various metals.
