If you have Pano (or even a fake pano look) roof, I'm a huge fan of the black painted roof spoiler. In any event, IMO it should match the color of your roof, to give that narrow rear window look.

Go to euroteckmotorsports.com website and look at the w211 section. It has an E63 with a carbon fiber lip and trunk spoiler. I am color blind but I think it's a pewter E class. If not it's still a light colored car with the CF spoiler and may help give you an idea of what it would look like.

What else is done to the car? Are you trying for a certain look sporty look like carbon fiber front and rear spoilers, some black wheels, a drop and tint? or are you staying stock for the most part and just want a rear lip on the trunk? Making everything flow is key to exterior mods imo.

Thanx all, my car is stock and has PanoRoof. I am thinking to put the CF trunk spoiler + C63 (3fins) CF diffuser. But still can not make decision either CF for the trunk spoiler or painted pewter.

I personally don't think mismatched spoilers fit the style of the e. Love it on the CLK BS, etc., but not on our cars.
IMO a black roof spoiler, pewter trunk lip and CF (or even better matte black painted) rear diffuser, is the way to go.
Whatever you decide, post pics!

1. Black roof spoiler blends seemlessly with pano roof and rear tinted window
2. Pewter trunk spoiler blends perfectly with pewter trunk
3. CF (I prefer either matte CF or painted matte black) allows the tailpipes to dominate the rear end (which is the best part of the rear end IMO)
