Here's a sample:

Sub Main
	Dim partDoc As PartDocument = ThisDoc.Document
	Dim compDef As SheetMetalComponentDefinition = partDoc.ComponentDefinition

	If (compDef.HasFlatPattern) Then
		Dim flat = compDef.FlatPattern
		Dim foldedFace = flat.ASideFace.ASideFace
		If (foldedFace IsNot Nothing) Then
			For Each faceX As Face In flat.ASideFace.Faces
				'partDoc.SelectSet.Select(foldedFace)
				SetFaceColor(faceX, "Orange", partDoc)
			Next
		End If
	End If
End Sub

Sub SetFaceColor(face As Face, appearanceName As String, partDoc As PartDocument)
	Dim asset As Asset = Nothing
	Try
		asset = partDoc.Assets.Item(appearanceName)
	Catch
		Dim assetLib = ThisApplication.AssetLibraries.Item("314DE259-5443-4621-BFBD-1730C6CC9AE9")  '("Autodesk Appearance Library")
		asset = assetLib.AppearanceAssets.Item(appearanceName)
		asset = asset.CopyTo(partDoc)
	End Try
	'Logger.Info("Asset name = {0}", asset.DisplayName)
	face.Appearance = asset
End Sub
