I would make the suggestion to NOT use silver paint for the bare metal exposed areas. The problem with silver paint, is that's exactly what it ends up looking like - paint.

If you want to achieve a more realistic finish, I'd suggest you use Testors Chrome Spray Enamel #1290. It comes in a spraycan, so you have to carefully spray the contents into the cap, and apply it using the torn sponge technique.
