Damaged Pressure Plate Straps

I’m baffled but I’m not sure of the make but the paint looks horrible. Like a 3rd grader painted it. I only mention this because it shows poor workmanship (since you said it was new). Honestly- I’d would had thought this was used with a quick rattle can paint job.
I’d make sure the throw out bearing was properly disengaged and not over throwing the fingers. I once had a three finger pp get wrecked because my geometry was off from “adapted clutch pedal parts.” When you pressed in the pedal- it pushed the tb further than normal. And this wrecked the springs. Clutch was junk after 300 miles.
It took a fresh set of eyes to tell me parts were wrong and my geometry was off.
A new proper abody Z bar and ball and stud bell housing bracket that was correct later and this never happened again.
That Zoom clutch lasted for years.
