I'm not sure if there is any serial numbers you can check, but you might try referencing the part numbers from www.mazdamotorsports.com. You can also tell if you look carefully, try to look for anything that looks like the lights have been tampered with. Check for pry marks, paint flaws, etc.

 

It would be pretty hard to tell from the photo. If you must buy one over the internet, look closely at the back side for pry marks. Typically, the real 99 will have less diffused light around the circles when lit. This would be hard to tell based without seeing it in person though.
