If I remember correctly, it has something to do with roll cage or roll bar. Different purpose might give you different glossiness and texture. I would say the caliper should be ok, but might be to thick of a texture.

Did you happen to determine the right version? Was is the Chassis Paint? My main concern would long term adhesion and finish quality when painting directly onto chrome.

But since this is just a muffler tip where it don't get dinged up or hit by road debris, I just do 3-5 coats.
