It's really hard to help without knowing what you're trying to do. What kind of metal should that look like? Try finding a photo of a real object that is similar to what you think it should look like. Any reflective material will look more realistic if you have something for the material to reflect, so having an HDRI environment map in the background and/or reflective maps will go a long way. The vismats that come with vray 1.05.29 or that you download are best thought of as a place to start rather than plug-and-play.
