I would return the lens.

Subject: Problem with my NEW FA 35/2? Please advise.
> Hi all. I received my new FA 35/2 lens from B&H yesterday,
and upon inspection I noticed two white dots on the inside of
the lens that cause streaky flares across the elements. These
dots are not on any of the elements, but appear to be on the
inside walls or the element mounts. They are near the front of
the lens, in front of the aperture diaphragm.
>
> So what do I do. I assume the dots are not supposed to be
there. I bought the lens for a trip I have planned to Aspen in
10 days. I've never tried to make a return to B&H, but in my
opinion sending it to Pentax is out of the question. I've never
even mounted it on a camera. I'm inclined to try to get a
return authorization for the lens, and then just order a new one
to speed up the process and eat the extra cost of shipping.
