Default Dumb question - exhaust tips.

My new to me 2008 997.1 TT has dual round exhaust tips on each side. Most of the stock cars I see have single oval tips. My exhaust looks stock under the car. Was this an option or a model year thing?

I am only aware of single oval outlets on the non GT2 cars so believe these are aftermarket. There may be a logo/brand on 'em somewhere.
