Hey bruno,

Add bump map of same image and reduce "reflect glossiness" to 0.8-0.5 in reflection layer in material editor..

also you can send your model for further assistance..

cheers..

From the menu's you have images of it looks like you were using default materials instead of a vray linked material.

 

If you create a VRayLinkedMtl all you have to do is add a reflective layer and then adjust how much reflection you want. If you still want to do bumpmaps you can do so but they aren't always necessary and depending on the original texture might not come out very good.
