Jesus look at how much the rotor has ground in to the caliper!  That is one of the several stupidest home service attempts I've ever seen.  Can't really imagine what that felt like going down the road.  Or how the dumbass kept taking it down the road for as long as he obviously did looking at all the ground away metal.   ???

I didn't think there was that much offset available to the installation.  Assuming it's not doctored I'm surprised the caliper can get installed that far off center.  Geez.....
