Well the Mesh will just wrap around a part - you would need to rotate the part itself.

Right, you'll need to rotate the actual part. Meshes - like cylinder meshes, for ex - have predetermined faces. The top face of the cylinder will always fall in line with the Top face of the part, whether the Top face is the one literally on top or not. :D

Yes, even that type of mesh is not excluded from the above criterion. It will always match the top/bottom/left/right/back/front of the part it's hosted within.
