I am looking to replace the rear oem bumper on a 2007 997 (s) with a replacement off a 2006 997.

Are these all the same? Including if the cars are an 'S' version or not?

Thanks!

The differences are between the C2 (narrowbody) and the C4 (widebody) - S designation has no bearing on body width.

+1 - All narrow bodies are interchangeable. All wide bodies are interchangeable.

Further, you don't say if your car is C2 or C4. But you do say it's a 2007. That makes it a 997.1. So if you want a replacement bumper only, look at any 997.1 matching your car's width (wide or narrow). I'm pretty sure you can go with 997.2 as well but you would need to change out the tail lights too in that case. I'm sure someone will confirm.

there is a diff model for the parking sensors but essentially they are identical to the c2/c4 bumper but with parking sensor holes drilled in + the sensor bracket.
