Default Need opinions on this clutch. . .

I know this is the wrong forum, and Ricey or Bauly please feel free to move if necessary. I just felt I would get the best opinions from this area.

So, I was told that my clutch showed "obvious signs of abuse/misuse" after it was removed. It was in my car for 2 weeks and 1000 miles. Tell me what you think the first 2 pictures are a brand new clutch the second 2 are of my clutch. Also, I was told that the blue was caused by "burn" or excessive heat.. but I find that hard to belive since the brand new one shows blue too. Tell me what you think!

Uhh, you sure you showed the pics right? Because the first 2 look better then the 2nd 2.
Also the blue does look like its heating up pretty bad, but im not sure what would cause that.


Edit: What type of pressure plate do you use, also has it been resurfaced?

I corrected it, the first two are the new one. It's all on brand new stock parts: pressure plate, tob, flywheel, and disk.

If the bluing is caused by heat, why is the Brand new never installed one blue too?
