If it's really that bad, send it back. Get something you don't have to pour money into.
 
X-metal (the finish) grew on me over my collecting career, it's probably my favourite standard finish now. Still, I'm no advocate of refinishing for the sake of it either.

This! I couldn't believe how amazing his black cerakote finish was on the pair I had done for my brother. Seriously, flawless and beautiful... I will have to do one for myself for sure. BUT, if you don't have one in Xmetal, I'd go with that (or, better yet, buy one in xmetal ;) ). So, if you aren't going to buy another one, xmetal is my vote. If you will add more in the future, the black cerakote X-Man does is second to none!
 
I think it depends on the lenses you plan on using. I personally love the carbon and black iridium combo. But there are definitely some colors that I don't think fit carbon that well like the blue ice iridium.
