An update to the questions asked above:
1) The Pepita seat inserts are built using factory Porsche Pepita material and cushions.
2) On PCCB 991.2 GT3RS, front and rear pads are available. Only the front Manthey pads are available for 991.2 GT3RS units with steel brakes, with new rears are in development to cope with the new computer system.
A few pictures pulled from the catalog for reference:

The upgrade kit for OEM dampers consists of the spring packers and shims is €985. If you are speaking of the KW 3-way dampers, those are more in the range of €8,395.
Manthey Racing commissioned the WEC mag wheels from BBS for use on the 991 GT3RS. Which others are you referring to? Here's a quote about the wheel and a reference image (note the WEC branding on the outer lip):
"For our new wheel set suitable for the Porsche 991 GT3 RS we are using the design and technology being used in the Porsche 991 RSR which we raced in the season 2015 and won the WEC world championship. Our aim was to transform the technology from the race track to the street. Using the material Magnesium we were able to drop the weight dramatically and save 13kg compared to the original wheel set in similar size."
It's our pleasure - happy to see folks driving these cars and thus looking to upgrade them. Seat inserts are €1,999 and the front pads (steel) are €671.43.

Please post a link or image to the wheels you are referencing. The BBS magnesium wheels seen below - RE1757 (image courtesy of Supreme Power) are offered for the 991 GT3, 911 R, and 911 Turbo. They are a different design "6 spoke" design versus the "7 spoke" WEC wheels that were originally commissioned by Manthey - seen below in gold.

On the topic of Porsche WP vs. Manthey/BBS magnesium wheels, BBS tells me there is no discernible performance difference. The former is an iteration of the latter, with only immaterial aesthetic differences (see where the spokes meet the lip).
