Default Lava Intake chipping and bubbling

What the hell happened to my intake? Why did this happen after only 200 miles? Here is a picture.

looks like bad powder coat, if theres any grease or oil on the metal before they coat it it will bubble and fish eye like that, id take it back, they should give u another one, its an obvious defect
