I'm not sure if this applies to all HD helmets but many, including their modular, FF and 3/4 helmets are made by HDC. In fact you can buy the identical model with an HDC logo instead of the HD logo, in most cases for 60% of what the HD has set the MSRP at on their branded helmets at.
when i got my first bike, i didn't have a helmet so i had to pick one up at the dealer the same time i got my bike. i don't remember what happened, but i had an issue with the helmet and i contacted hd customer service. they gave me the contact info for the helmet manufacturer and i called them and they sent me the stuff i needed right away. no hassles, no run-around.

Obviously something was between the shell and the final finish or it wouldn't damage the overall finish.
The guy paid for a helmet that should be 100% perfect. If the supplier won't reasonably take it back then I'd play the safety card "what if" and make some noise. That gets attention down here but it may mean less where you are.....not my problem.
Goods for sale must be of reasonable quality and fit for service. His helmet is neither and should be replaced graciously -- unless he spilled something on it....

I have the flat black Hybrid half helmet. It's never seen anything but the natural elements that mother nature throws at it and mine is sticky and shiny on the top. I thought some kid must have got his popsickle on it while I was away from my bike at some point. I love how it fits and the light weight.

The best helmet I've ever owned (comfort & safety - D.O.T & Snell rated) was a SHOEI J-Wing. Recently after realizing it needed replacement, I searched and found SHOEI had discontinued it... couldn't find it anywhere at the time. Just did a Google search and finally found that Dennis Kirk has them (lots of colors and sizes available), plus fortunately it well discounted. Almost hurt myself ordering it so fast... on the way!
Great helmet, just wanted to pass this along.
