No they dealer sent it out to the tint shop and body shop for the spoiler for us. It delayed delivery by a couple days, and when I did receive the car it was quite dirty (and the leather in back seat has an irreparable scratch), but I didn't want to wait an extra day for them to detail it again.

No power tilt mirrors on the E.
The 5-spoke are nice indeed but they cost more than $1K each so don't bent them by ruining a tire over a pothole...
GuyFawkes, do you know if the rear spoiler needs to have holes drilled to be secured? Or, in other words, once you have one installed you cannot remove it ever unless by doing body work? I must admit I like it so I may add one...
And if you want to remove your star visor I recommend DFWdude's one (as you can see on my hi-res pix at https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...-thread-4.html).
Enjoy.

Maybe he's is Canada. Us Americans don't get heated steering wheel, folding mirrors or rear seat climate control. Those are three of the things I know, I am sure the list might be longer. It seems that if you want a "real" Mercedes E-class you might have to buy the car anywhere but in the good old USA.
