I think it looks good either way, but if YOU are bored with it I'd say go ahead and add the wing. It definitely won't detract from the car in any way. I'd even suggest getting a rep. RS wing. I have the factory Aero wing and like it. I wouldn't mind slapping on a replica RS wing though 
I think the RS wing will look great on your car.

Here is a GT3 front and a Techart wing (on a wide body but you still get a good idea). This car looks amazing. Each time I look at these pitures it makes me want to get back in a Porsche.
I prefer a more subtle rear wing on the narrow body 997's. It definately needs a wing tho IMO.
Your car looks amazing. Congrats.

First of all, go for the wing. Either the GT3 or the GT3RS wing.
I am not sure but does the air-intake match up correctly or is there a need for fabrication?
Vorsteiner makes a knockoff of the GT3RS wing and looks great.
I put the GT3RS wing on my GT3 and you must change the decklid shock to match, if not the wing hits the rear window glass when opened.
The wing will look great on your 997S.

OK, I appologize for bringing this up one last time as I am torned between the 2 but you may just help me make the final decision. I promise this will bury the subject for me. GT3 OR GT3 RS WING? thank you all.

things to keep in mind which will help you make up your mind. the 997S intake opening and fan location is on driver side of the engine compartment lid.
options:
1. oem gt3 deck - intake opening and fan is in different location, requires some fab work.
2. oem RS decklid - same as #1
3. replica gt3 decklid - intake and fan locations are correct. but its a replica may need more prepwork.
4. replica RS decklid - same as #3 but looks much better
(vorsteiner or ma shaw)
my vote is for option 4

the oem rs wing is nice but for a 997 it doesn't make sense to get oem rs wing and only to rework the bottom side and it would be very difficult to find a used oem rs wing. but if you want to go oem gt3 wing, you can buy mine. hahaha. if your car is white, then you have the oem paint to boot. still you need to rework the bottom side. my goodness how many times did i say oem.
