Yeah I'm not even sure what the full RUF conversion would mean exactly. This guy does a pretty good breakdown http://www.pistonheads.com/roadtests...p?c=105&i=6479

In truth that represents good value for money as not only did it include the re-programmed ECU, upgraded KKK turbos, full sports exhaust and new re-profiled camshafts, but it also included a full overhall of the cylinder heads, an RS spec flywheel (rather then the standard dual mass item) and the uprated suspension.
but he doesn't mention anything cosmetic inside or out in the review.
Also weissach's "full RUF conversion" is the same story, performance bits but no cosmetic bits that are a telltale sign that it's different except the pedals and the badge on the rear. They have a gorgeous example for sale right now too and this one doesn't even have the Ruf wheels.

My guess is that the cosmetic bits are all just options and aren't an essential part of the turbo R conversion. ie. ctr2 bumper, seats, wheels, etc.
