I heard you don’t need them because S brakes are so good.

You don't need a 911, either.

At a guess a brown carbon roof would be around $50,000 as a CXX option.
They wanted £6,000 just to powder coat my alloys in Weiss Gold.

Someone mentioned Hawks ceramic pads to mitigate some of the brake dust but I went to the website and it said not available for my 2020 Carerra S?

Ceramic brakes on a street car...for when center lock wheels and a fire extinguisher on your street car is not enough
