They're RUF. The rear spoiler is part of a complete CF decklid and I made the normally fixed upper wing active Aero with hydraulics like the TT's have.
The bumper is their RGT style for the NB cars with the through bumper exhaust and RUF tips to match the openings. I talked them into selling me their last one which had been sitting on the shelves for a couple years in case one of their customers had an accident. I don't believe they're making any more of them. I trimmed the inner heat shields to match up to the bumper vents so now they allow air that enters through the wheel wells to escape through the bumper vents and I reinforced the bottom of the bumper so it wouldn't move site the airflow. You can also see the PSE valves from my Fabspeed exhaust open and close through the bumper vents as well.

I've been told that Dectane is no longer making either the smoke or the clear (which I think they call crystal). I had to buy mine from the Amazon - Germany site (www.amazon.de). They do not show up on the US site, but the ordering was normal and delivery was fine. If you have Google Chrome as your browser, it gives you the option to translate web pages - not sure about others, but without it you'll be lost unless you know German.
Good luck.
Good luck.

Nothing looks better than OEM full reds on the 997.1. The clear tails look cheap, cheesy and do not fit the cars' character. What I decided to do was install LED bulbs in the reds for the instant on/off for the blinkers.

I just ordered a set of those exact same lights. Couldn't find them in the US so I actually ordered them from Germany. You and I were lucky as according to Dectane, the manufacturer, neither these light smoke ones or the crystal/chrome/clear versions are in production any longer, just the red and the red/smoke styles. What did you pay for them from Orange Tuning? I agree that they're the best looking smoke rear LED lights for silver, grey, or black cars.
