Is this kinda what you wanted? I tossed this together in like 20 minutes...I could have made it look dirtier if I had a muddy type .tif file, I could have made one but I got lazy...
I did this using a layered textured phong. The layers were a brushed aluminum, a scratched layer, and a slash layer. I then added a plane, and an image based lighting scheme with a HDRI. Just rendered it out with MR. I can make a tutorial on how I did this if you want.
