I don't think you want to wait until the clutch is 100% gone (by that time you will need a new $1000 flywheel too).
Also check you brake fluid moisture content (that might cause your pedal issue).

This is typical of Boxster clutches as well as what you are reporting OP. The T/O bearing wears away the grease on the pressure plate fingers & then it wears the fingers flat instead of rounded. Replace your clutch with a stock Sach as soon as you can & check your IMS bearing while the trans is out.
