More advice needed for 2011 E550 Mods-tint/spoiler

I have had this E550 for about 2 years and love every minute that I am driving it. I recently bought a 2007 SL55 as a weekend driver, love every minute of this car as well. The E550 is beautiful as is but looking to do a couple cosmetic things to dress it up- #1 tinted windows to match the darkness of the panoramic sunroof #2 roof spoiler to match the panoramic sunroof and # 3 the advice I am looking for- my SL55 has a carbon fiber black rear spoiler that looks great, my E550 has a rear spoiler that matches the car color but thinking that the contrast on the SL looks so good that maybe I get a new rear spoiler in painted black as an accent to match the roof- what are your thoughts on this? and if I do this I am thinking carbon fiber may look out of place so leaning towards painted black? And if I were to do this who could help in taking the old one off and replacing it with a new one? here are some pics of both cars:








Also any suggestions on performance mods for the E550???

UPDATE!! windows tinted by D&L the best - Chris is a world champion winning the window tinting contest, they also vinyl wrapped my spoiler and I will be getting a roof spoiler from JBSPEED soon- (are they really easy enough for me to install?? My wife always calls any project that I do uniquely davidized because there is something always just a bit off with any DIY project from putting in a ceiling fan to making a walkway or installing a flagpole, just worried that davidizing something on my car would be disastrous)

Not sure I love the filters, but that E spoiler came out sweet. Not too much, not too little. Nicely done.
