looks like you got ripped off. did it come sealed up in plastic? looks like it didn't. I'd send it back demanding a brand new clutch.

I think that's how they heat shield them now. I bought an oem clutch from my buddy at the honda dealership and I asked him to see it and it looked like that on the fingers and also so did my exedy clutchs.

Does not looked used to me. It is probably just the heat treating they do to the fingers.
