Probably not improper bedding in considering these are all factory installed... I don't think he mentioned anything about new pads... OP, please confirm that

The thermal management on the front brakes of this vehicle is downright horrible... best guess, I agree with your friends you have a warped rotor or rotors... you could have warped one side and would still get a shimmy with no pull, if it's not too extreme...

There's only one way to tell, remove the rotors and have your brake guy spin them... let us know what you find out

Also before "fixing this" with new parts... you should think about how to get more air to the front brakes... otherwise you may end up with this problem all over again... I cooked a very expensive set of AP Racing rotors... my problems went away after I crated some home-made air ducts... search this board for "brake cooling" there are a number of projects going on and you should find a solution that fits your budget

good luck
