Yeah you need to replace it. Never sell yourself short on cheap parts. Those parts are pocket change. If you aren't sure just replace them. You can get a complete cap and rotor kit for like $20

Do not forget whatever accessories you buy such as this will all carry over to the 350. So don't hold back now.
