You've just been initiated into the "melted hood scoop" club. Several threads on this issue, they'll just replace it again and again. It's cheap plastic that can't withstand the turbo heat just below it. You can buy a M7 heat shield or just keep replacing it until Mini/BMW do something about it it. I have an M7 heat shield and no melting after 9,000 miles. Do a search, you'll see all the threads out there.
