Yeah, thats useful information. I am sure he appreciates it. Its likely not rotors, if the pads and rotors are brand new, which you are saying they are, the cause is likely a caliper issue. Were the calipers rebuilt/replaced when the new brake hardware was installed? If not, as mentioned above, check the calipers for any loose bolts. Also, I know I have had grinding issues with frozen pistons before as well. Something to look at although it doesnt seem to be likely in this case.
