Flavor 987 is correct. However, often times oem parts will get pirated and or copied and later marketed as being genuine. Furthermore, manufacturers who have been contracted by Porsche to produce the part, will in turn often sell them to after market companies who then put their names on them. Others will create their own version of the oem part by creating their own molds and tooling and copying it directly. These practice are very common in the industry. Take for example Gemballa's 986 front bumper. I've been informed that they essentially take the Porsche factory bumper, or an equivalent thereof, simply open up the center channel and bond a set of fiberglass splitters on the bottom edges of the bumper to create their own.
