Pardon my ignorance: will GT2RS body parts fit Turbo?

Would the GT2RS front bumper, rear bumper, and rear wing/intake fit on a 997.2 Turbo?
Again, pardon my ignorance, I am newer at this. Thanks for your time.

Casey at TPC did a nice conversion recently with a custom rear deck they made, check this!

Not really what you were looking for but one step closer, I suppose:

I believe the front bumper will fit, no problem. Isn't the 2RS bumper the same as the 2 bumper + different lip? Seen many GT2 bumpers on Turbos.
Rear bumper probably fits but I am not sure about the exhaust - if they exit at different points, it might require GT2 (or GT2 aftermarket) exhaust.
Decklid should fit but to verify it works, compare a Turbo engine and GT2 engine pic to see that the airbox has the same openings. I asked an analogous question not long ago about a Sport Classic ducktail lid on a 3RS.

Thanks guys. Looks like the rear has the same lines so shouldnt be an issue, unless the exhaust needs to be swapped as well. The stock turbo tips surely wont work but I was figuring it shouldnt need anything swapped but the tips.

I think it will need more than just tips. If the exit points are different (looks like GT2 exhaust is more centered), then it'd be like installing 430 exhaust on a 16M and just swapping the tips. Which of course wont work either.
