Use a separate GeometryInfo for each part.  ObjectFile.java does something
similar.  It uses a separate GeometryInfo for each part.  It also groups
parts together for normal generation within "smoothing groups" and then
breaks them apart again into individual pieces.  Look at the ObjectFile
source for an example of what you're trying to do.  You may be able to
just modify it to do what you need.
