The quick answer is no, the RS wing does not fit on the base GT4. The main complication is that the GT4RS risers (needed for that wing) are not compatible with the GT4 rear hatch lid openings and mounting points, with the RS risers being slightly wider and having more fasteners.
There is a solution however to this and that comes from a company in Scotland called Automotive Passion. They have developed a set of wing risers that work with the GT4 rear hatch lid and the GT4RS wing. https://automotivepassion.net/produc...he/cayman-gt4/
The timing of your post is rather good as they sent me this picture of my custom wing that is being prepared for shipment to me as we speak. Mine is the blue one
Since the GT4RS has 5 mounting points for for each riser and the GT4 only has 3, do you have any stability concerns of the heavier aftermarket wing at speed?

I initially had some concerns and then realized that the GT4 Clubsport wing (which generates significantly more downforce than the OE GT4 wing and likely more than the RS wing) mounts to the OE GT4 mounting points.
Id be curious to know if the GT4 and/or GT4RS wing would fit a GTS 4.0?
Don't believe so, the rear hatch would need to be modified (not sure how practical that would be) to accept the spoiler risers.
My Automotive Passion wing was installed this past Friday and I'm totally satisfied with how things turned out. Love the way the car looks now... if the GT4 was available with a Weissach Package I'm sure it would look something like this:

Do you think you'll swap the air intakes to the carbon ones, or leave it as is?

I have the CF intakes in my possession but I'm leaning towards keeping the intakes as they are. I think the car has just the right balance and feel like restraining myself further is the right choice. I'm really happy with the overall look of the car now.

Yes, I'm planning on installing the full underside aero package on the front of the car and strongly considering the Verus Engineering front splitter to balance out the front/rear downforce. I do love the OE RS splitter and side wings; however, I'm not interested in placing a component on my car with the RS badge. That's not my thing and I'm already walking a fine line in my own head.
I think the Carbon side air intakes really complement the lines of the car and the beautifully sculptured door panel
Yeah, I do really like them (purchased a set to install), but I'll hold off for a while and see how this look sits with me. At the moment I'm really liking it as it is and tempted to just leave it alone (once I get the splitter sorted).
