I don't even know what these are... I'm pretty sure it should have been just 4 shoes total, and associated wear indicators. I think the indicators are just on the outer pad, but I'd have to pull the wheel to check.
While LB is correct in saying your brakes are a vital part of your car, I would highly recommend you change them yourself. The more you work on your car the better you'll understand how it works, which makes you a better driver.
Disc brakes, especially on a Porsche are very easy to change once you see how they work. That's why people get worked up about dealer prices. I think it'd take <15 minutes per wheel to change a set, and all you need is the lug wrench, jack, and a flat head screw driver. Porsche has always been closely tied to it's race teams, so most items on the car that are meant to be changed regularly are designed for ease of maintenance. And there is a wealth of parts and knowledge available online.
Don't be scared of the cars price tag. Many jobs that the dealership will charge you an arm and a leg to do can be done at home and are very satisfying. All 4 brakes should take under 2 hours and cost ~$200. You just effectively made $650/hr for 2 hours. That's definitely worth a beer! And you'll have a good story to share at the next PCA meeting.
Two tips, racing brakes squeal a lot when they're cold, and make sure you pump your brakes a few times after you're done to get them reseated!
