I don't see why not...caliper paint is made for high temps and usually adheres to metal better, but I am not sure about plastic....try it on some piece of plastic you have kicking aroundn or just run out and buy another can of regular spray paint that states it can be used for plastics, etc...

I wouldn't personally recomend it. Are you paiting over the chrome? If yes I would recomend you prime it first. If you have a 2001 or newer don't do it, it does not look good. Good luck.
