Default abnormal front end noise-problem solved?

I examined the front suspension components and found nothing wrong. Nevertheless, I noticed the the brake rotor dust shield (sheet metal) seemed to be too close to the disc and the gap seemed to close when I turned the wheel (left). I bent the dust shield back and the noise seems to have disappeared. I heard nothing after an extensive road test. The real road test wiil occur this evening when my wife road tests the car --just to make sure I am not imagining the noise away.
