to quote Leigh once again:

"don't ask around for presets, make them yourself because you won't find any presets of -for example- an elephants toenail"

but shiny metal surfaces are not a real problem...
use a higher specularity and lower glossiness (the lower the gloss the shinier it becomes)

use a greyish, silverish colour or a gradient if you want that particular look
