I replaced the front wheel bearing and now when I am going very slow and turn sharp to the right the caliper rubs on the outer part of the rotor.
any thoughts?

You have to tighten the bolts on the caliper.

I had the wheel bearing replaced on a ES300 years ago. I was painting the caliper the next day and noticed how close the rotor was to the caliper. I figured they did not seat the bearing fully, which caused it. The service writer flipped out the next day and claimed I had screwed it up. I went toe to toe with him on his "facts" and how it is assembled (I owned it for 16 yrs and disassembled it and did a brake pad cleaning & painted the calipers 16 times) and they ended up fixing it (centering the rotor)....... of course pounding the fresh paint off in hammer blows to the caliper.
I don't know what they did but something was re-centered.
