Hi mazin, I am assuming you are referring to my pictures since they are the only examples posted, if so thanks. To answer your question, the roof spoiler is white all around ,however I am not sure about the after market ones.

My personal opinion, but I think that it ruins the sleek Pano look. At least that particular spoiler is gigantic it seems (like it's about to swallow something). But if you dig it, then that's all that matters! Enjoy.

I love that something this granular comes up as a regular topic on these boards. As I pieced together the white pano E350 I wanted (now on order), the roof spoiler became a major aesthetic choice for me.

I ended up loving the look of the white factory roof spoiler- the way it breaks up the black roofline really anchors the look of the car for me. Others prefer no spoiler for the exact opposite reason-- they don't want that black roofline broken up. I guess the black roof spoiler lands somewhere in between.

Differing opinions with the commonality that we all love the look of our cars.

A shot (E550, borrowed from someone's earlier post) of the white pano with the white roof spoiler is attached..

Interesting. yeah, I guess we all have our preferences in how to treat our Pano looks (Pano is a big aesthetic measure in itself! Lol). I love that "open/black" top look, and feel that it gets pretty broken up by any of the above spoilers. But, also a disclaimer: I'm not a big fan of roof spoilers as is.

The "canopy" look created by the unobstructed pano roofline is what originally attracted me to the panoramic roof, and definitely on a white car. I would consider your car the "classic" look, if there is such a thing for pano roofs-- It's a very clean look.

I should add that Benzinini is (I think) the only one with a white E w/ pano and the white factory roof spoiler that I've seen on these boards. Anyone else? You're the man Benzinini!
