Definitely replace both calipers, and you may want to think about replacing
the brake lines as well. If the caliper got that hot then you can be sure
that the brake lines got pretty toasty as well and they are just rubber.

Well the front brake hung up and melted the boot on the piston going to
go find new caliper. Should I replace them both?
Were is a place to to have the power slot rotors skinned? I probably
should have cleaned them sooner.TIA.
