Mods for a 2014 E350?

Hi All, I know I already made a thread on this, but some time has gone by now, and opinions and ideas change. here is how the car stands now, I like how the car looks extremely classy. and adding a spoiler seems like it would kill that. I'm planning to get the steering wheel restored as its a bit sad now at 120,000KM, and also was wondering on maybe wrapping the roof and roof rails black, but at the same time, I want to make the car something that its not.

IMO, skip the roof wrapping. Lower it a bit and some add some wheels and tires. Those would be cosmetic changes that actually could have performance gains!

I would recommend the spoiler as it makes the car pop more in the rear (my opinion). I’ve have the same spec as yours. I added a spoiler from JPSPEED (awesome quality and finish and price!!), added the AMG QUAD tips and rear valence, new wheels, TINTS ARE A MUST, steering wheel from Revotech (Insane quality and price), and the AMG grille that you can swap out and is pretty easy to do. Again, all my opinion

Hmmm, dunno, I think those AMG rims are already pretty sweet, I think you'd be hard-pressed to find much nicer. Bit of a drop would be nice, though.

My 2016 is a work in progress. This is a list of everything I have either already done or have planned:

Done
Diamond grille
Llumar ceramic (R) & 3M crystalline (F) tint
Android Auto mod
ECO Off mod
Escort Max 360 ci with rear view mirror display and Mid City Engineering cluster display module

Work in Progress (Stuff in the mail)
Factory ILS headlight upgrade
Rear trunk spoiler
Wheel upgrade

Wish List
Rear diffuser (carbon fiber or night edition) with quad tips
Lower rear end (looking for option to do just rear)
S mode remember last setting mod

BTW I tried the Depo ILS style headlights. They malfunctioned and the light output was uneven

If the E350 has the same type of suspension as the E63, you can simply install Adjustable links in the rear. Literally pop off the OE ones and pop on the adjustable ones. Shorter the link the lower the car. Said link can be had for $100 on eBay.

Thanks for the tip. I thought the E63 was airmatic suspension but I'll definitely look into it
