I for one really like the looks of this car (first saw it a few months back)
I wouldn't be too worried about looking too "SHELBY" as with 640 HP all a shelby will see is the rear end and not for too long at that.
On the other hand;
I'm really disapointed at the fitment of those saleen pieces when looking at the rear view. looks like all three pieces of the wing could be adjusted to fit better. Nit picking ..YES.. but I hope others are a little better fitting then this.

If you like the looks do it. It is your car.
Here's a pic of a similar car (just disregard all that extreme and 640 crap plastered all over it...)

That white car with the blue stripes is a really early double digit 05 car. Not to defend Saleen or anything but it's an early car from the first year hence the lousy fitting rear bumper and pink third brake light.

Interesting - my car is #92 and had the fitment issue. I never looked at my brake light, guess I should. I don't see the pink. Is the problem with the lense itself, or the LED's [&:]

Mine's #52 and the deck is also not lined up as it should be. However I don't think I can fix it myself and am terrified of having a dealer do it. Maybe when I take her to a new dealer at her next service checkup I'll have gained some courage...
