Default 98 ex brake caliper question

i had to go get new rotors and pads on my civic but when they tried to put on the rotor they said that the caliper was bent. so i bought a new caliper and had that installed only to hear them say that it might be the knuckle that is bent because the rotor is not sitting flush inside the hub so it is rubbing on the caliper bracket. but i had to have my car and i have been driving it for about a week with no problems whatsoever.

Now my question is should i spend the money for the knuckle and if so where could i come across a cheap one or should i wait to see if i have any more problems with the brakes before i replace anything else. thanks
