I think that is really great that you have accomplished what you have with your car. However you should stop there, by putting on a number that has been used by another Saleen is in appropriate and misrepresenting the vehicle.

Dude - please don't misrepresent your car. It is a GT with Saleen ground effects, which is great - putting a FAKE bumper number on it is just wrong 
But if you feel you must, Saleen never used preceeding zero's on the bumper stickers. You should know that #69 already exists and you would be considered a fraud. If you really want a bumper number, use something that was NOT used, such as any 4 digit number starting above 1000.

Find out how many were made that year and make yours 1 higher than the last.

Afixing a number to the car is just wrong. Are you going for a copy because you like the Saleen or are you deliberately trying to rip one off ?

This wouldn't work. They skip various numbers for various reasons. So if they made 750 (hypothetically) the numbers could very well go up to 800 or more.
If you really want to put a number on it - just put 6. Saleen never uses that number, so you wouldn't be fraudently representing somebody elses car - and all the Saleen enthusiasists will recognize your car as a clone (again, which isn't a problem)

guys
he can put wutever number he wants - its not fraud - SALEEN SOLD HIM THE KIT DIDN'T THEY?
don't hate bc he was smart and did the body kit himself and saved 20k.... as long as you do try to sell it as original than it doesnt matter, but better yet - get Steve Saleen to sign it at a meet - then you can sell it as an original with his blessings (finish the conversion of course)
- that will really piss all of these haters off
There absolutly nothing FAKE about it - they are real saleen parts - the same that are on your prospective cars - he just didnt pay a whole lot for them...

You again Nobody said ANYTHING about hating?!?! We were just telling him our two cents about using a fake number. Yes he bought a body kit, but no that doesn't make his car an authentic, searlialized Saleen. And if you think adding only a body kit means he saved $20k then your thoughts aren't even worth any further response.......
