Default Custom Saleen Rear Bumper

I'm having a custom one off Saleen rear bumper made in aluminum I'm trying to add a few customized features to my version and I'm wondering if anyone here has some cool ideas to input on my project to differentiate it from the normal design. When I put it on the car it's going to go on without paint and on a black car it should be striking I think.

I'll keep checking back on this thread.

It's not started yet. I'm in the planning stage now.

Are you going to modify the whole wrap around bumber cover? In my opinion, I always thought the rear bumber looked just a tad bit too long when viewing the car from the side. Perhaps doing something to break up that piece of the rear bumber would look nice.

Can't wait to see some pics once you start to get it going. Sounds like a fun project.

i always felt the extra length the bumper gave really differentiates the saleen to other special stangs. in a good way
