To update you all. I got my wife to drive me around while I hung my head out the window like a dog. Realized after all this that the noise, while it sounded like it was coming from the rear, was coming from the front. Got under it, the heat/dust shield (not sure what this actually called) on the back of the rotor had some play. Gave a few tugs to pull out the slack and it fixed the problem. I kind of feel like an idiot, haha. I appreciate all your insight and help.

Now, to put the passenger running board back on, but I'm actually kind of liking the way it looks without it. On or off? thought?
