Well, as far as the finish thats on the cap, you're not going to get that with any kind of spray paint. You can get close though. Rust-oleum bright coat metallic finish (With the silver cap) works the best out of all the chrome paints for me. But you have to take care to get the best finish. You need to spray it in a very dry place, no humidity. Spray a light coat, let it dry for an hour or two, spray another light coat. Once you've covered it let it dry for a day, again keep it away from humidity or it will dull the finish, and DONT touch it at all after you've sprayed it, the metallic will pick up fingerprints like C.S.I. After a day, you HAVE to spray a clear coat over it to protect the finish, that goes with any chrome paint. Once you put that on let it dry for days, there's no telling how long it might take for all the paint to cure and you don't want to risk a print.
Other than that, Testors makes a metallic paint system that you can get in hobby shops. You spray it, buff it, and then use a special clear coat all designed to work together. And they make several finishes. I've never used this before so I can't tell you how effective it is, but it might be great. finally there is a product called "Bare-metal" or similar names, that is actual sheets of very thin metal, available in different types, chrome, steel, bronze, aluminum, etc. and it just has adhesive on one side. This can be very effective and taking into account all the seems on an endo skull, you could get a great look with this. You'll need to practice with it a little bit though, the sheets are very fragile and you need to get all the air bubbles out and everything.
