Default Painting over chrome '69 Nova headlight bezel???

I have a couple of the GM made headlight bezels for my 69 L78 Nova, but as you all know, they seem to only sell the non-SS version which has chrome bars on each horizontal bar versus the correct SS bezel which should have blacked out bars except for the top and bottom.

The question is, how you would paint out the center bars over the chrome? Can you simply use a self-etching primer and then paint with black? Or, do you need to somehow remove or scuff the chrome before painting over it?

Thanks for your help.
