When mine arrived, it was nice and clean inside, with no discoloration. You should certainly call the dealer from whom you bought it and ask them to exchange it, just to be on the safe side. There's not much mechanical damage that it could do, but if something is in there it might mess up your catalytic converter and keep you from passing emissions.

Dyran from the looks of it you have had some great luck with the products youve bought, LoL, first the mistaken cat back exhaust but really an axle back, now this. Man that $ucks , but send it back for a new one and make them pay for shipping back and forth. Good luck man.

Well, F!#@ it!! I just took the headers over to a hot rod shop and had them clean it out. WhenI call AEM's office they said it would be fine. I took your guys advice and installed my wanna be cat back and muddy headers on my own. Very simple with the directions posted here. And yes, it feels much better when you do the mods your self. Thanks for all the good advice. Oh, it runs quite a bit better withthe headers and exhaust. My cai should be here tomorrow so that will be next.
