Googles "brunito", Googles "burnished" - ah, shiny.

I'm guessing you mean the 4 air vents across the dashboard? Is aluminium brunito a specific colour? Maybe somewhere that mixes up paint then, you'll need to use a primer for plastics (and make sure the vents are clean of any polishes etc. or it'll go all fish eye-y) Or if it's just shiny aluminium then some sort of paint for plastics, from a local arts shop perhaps.

Do you mean the air vent surround?

If so, it's easy to remove and spray whichever colour you want ( I painted mine white )

If you want the silver like the newer 406s, or indeed the Coupés ) then you may find them online.

Yes, that's the late 406 and Coupe ones.

Try contacting Adrian at BBAutos as he may have some.
