Obviously...
To the OP. If you do end up replacing the rotor. Make sure you ask what kind of bearing they use in the rotor. Cheap is not always the best route... There's been an issue where certain brands of rotor was using a subpar bearing and was seeing bearing failure in as little as 5-10k miles. Do you homework early so it pays off down the road.

It just kinda stings a little as this set of rotors are relatively fresh.

The rotor does not appear to have 'blued', but has a little pulse under braking. Thinking I can live with it for now. Just ordered a pair of Centric 'loaded' calipers/brackets from Rockauto.
