zimmerman rotors are good aftermarket OEM equivalent
pads not sure, OEM, there is a Pagid option, Textar, etc.
checkout the options at RMeuropean.com
this is a less than 2hr job / axle....

Search my thread here. They are easy to change but front brakes require a tool, extra jack, or second person to hold them. I see you are in Houston so I let you borrow my tool, live in the heights but tool is only $36.
How many miles?
Do you feel a lip on the rotors, if not, just replace pads.
I purchased mine from Sunset Porsche, much cheaper than Houston dealers and comparable to after marked.

The driver had no insurance or license - police involved- 2 great witnesses who saw it all and confirmed our description of the event.
I'll know Monday what my insurance company will decide on my 2011 48K mile Air Suspension Cayenne S.

Wow, sorry to hear about that. Glad you guys are ok, except for being banged up.
Hope they total your car and you can get a new one. airbags deployed means that the car will be a total loss.
Would new brakes have helped? That was a joke.
Good luck and now you can get a GTS as your replacement

Amazing, glad you will ultimately be ok. Follow thru on the physical therapy, hot tub/hot baths, stretching. I learned this the hard way!

On Washington, sorry to hear. Crazy road. Glad you had witnesses and could place blame on the minivan driver and that you are not seriously hurt.

Damn - that's a hard hit. No movement from the pole, compared to hitting something deformable. Cayennes are a good vehicle to be in during a crash - glad you were able to walk away!
