Default just did a brake change, rotors have scrape marks

i have a completely stock 98 integra 4door, i just changed the front brakes with oem honda brakes. the brakes brake fine with no noise. but i noticed my rotors look like they have scrape marks.any ideas will be appreciated. i checked and nothing is bent or broken. the shims look really good. nothing is out of place. i lubricated the 2 puch rods or pins(sorry im not sure what they are called)

did you resurface the rotors when you changed the brake pads

Obviously he did not, that rotor is well glazed.

You need to measure that brake rotor and determine if it is still fit for use. If it can be machined, machine it.

If not, replace it.
