Catalyst (not CX) front starts to look terrible after one year

OK, I am not sure how this is called in English, I think it is the frontal grille, this mesh(?) covering the speaker from front. It is one year after the purchase, and it starts to look terrible especially in sunlight. I don't know whats going on. It is not a big deal  it still works and sounds great, but... it strange for me. It is only one year, never used outside house. What will be after next 5 or more years. I just wonder what your experience with this. Do you have the same problem or is it just me?
I made some photos, unfortunately, it is not visible as good on my camera. Also don't have much sunlight right now. It is far more visible in sunlight.

People actually PAY EXTRA for relic'd guitars...

Think of it as "Character".

 

My 2.5yo Catalyst still looks fine.

I, on the other hand......

 

Getting old sucks.

I never understood the hype over relic guitars. I know that there are people who pay extra for them and that's odd for me, but... no one will pay me extra for relic amp :( Besides it has only one year and I think i treat it well. Maybe not if I am the only one person who have all this "dots" appearing all over the front grille. First I thought that's production defect of Cat and that's why they replace this grille with new one in CX. But if you don't have this problem than it is not that case.
I wonder if such a thing would affect the price if I would ever wanted to sell it
