They had G-1 tail (BTW same as Ju 188) but NOT the Ju 188 wings. Ju 88 G-1/6 could not be fitted with Ju 188 wings, as they were non-compatable" as stated in Ju 188 flight manual. As pointed out by Pater Achs the G-7 was planned have same Wing area: 54.7 m2 (587 ft2) as A-4 (ie. same as G-1/6) but Ju 188 had Wing area: 56 m² (603 ft²) (wiki)
