Replacing the front brakes on my 1995 945. Girling Calipers, ABS,

(1) The rebuilt calipers I bought from eeuro contained some extra metal shims (picture below). What are they for? Are they optional?

(2) the inner dust shield on the front driver's side is totally gone (rusted away). Is it dangerous to throw up my hands and no replace it? Will the caliper fail prematurely?
