Splash guard behind the Rotor bent!?
 

I have no idea how it happened, but I started driving and got a few blocks and heard a LOUD SCREECHING noise. I couldn't tell at first what it was....I rev'd up and listened and that wasn't it. The second I moved at all, it made the noise. I guess I'll have to jack the car up and either fix or remove it....

I HAD to drive it home for the next .25 miles cause there was nowhere to stop....but I fixed the guard as good as I could and it wasn't as bad at least...but lets hope for me not having to replace the Rotor soon as it was scratched to hell :(

I figure whenever I replace my rotor, go for something fancy like drilled/slotted....might as well, eh?

The splash/rock gard can be bent back real quick. Thats a ezfix. As for the rotor getting all scratched up thats meh ok in my book. Hell its going to set curved down with the pads anyhow. I would wait till your brakes are shot to replace them or you can just have that one rotor resurfaced if its that bad.
What the hell did you hit? a tree? lol

That's what I was thinking! I have NO idea how it happened. I took a right turn, and SQUEEEEEEEEKKKKKKK. Hurt my ears.

Also, if you look at your front guards, are htey already bent? Like, at all? BOTH of my front ones are bent up top/towards the front of the rotor. If they are supposed to look like that, it may have just been a stick that got caught by my tire or something.

Yes, the top forward portion of the guards are bent inwards. It allows for some air to get circulated through the rotor.

Had a similar problem myself once, it ended up being a small rock lodged in between the shield and the rotor. I just pulled the guard back and the rock fell out. This was about 2 years ago and I haven't had any problems since.

^What he said :)

No rock, I just bend it outward more, and that solved the issue. I'm getting some rock got magically kicked up and moved the guard in just barely causing the issue. Haven't had a problem since.

I'm glad the guards are bent inward to begin with. I thought some crazy kid decided to jerk me around by bending my guards like that. :lol:
