Problems Rendering with MR

Hi everyone! I have a problem rendering the front of a BMW car I have modeled, I am using MR with Final Gather, Ray Trace and an IBL node. The problem is that somehow when I render with Mental Ray the front part of the car displays the whole of the grid, like if the front was transparent or something which it isn't, I don't have this problem when rendering with Maya as you can see. All the objects in the scene are nurbs.

Could you help me please? thanks in advance user added image

Ok, I think it might be because I mapped a reflected color to the material and used an HDRI with raytrace on in mental ray, this "double" reflection probably caused a conflict within the geometry. I turned of the reflected color and left the HDRI image as the only reflection that the car emits and that solved the problem user added image
