The mobile home I owned has shutters, you can also use wood boards and cut out designs in the middle, for example the shapes of pine trees, moons, hearts or anything that you like. Here is a picture of my mobile with shutters.
I like brightly covered awnings. What color is your home?
Well I think the biggest problem is not your windows but the colour of the unit. In the summer it would be and easy paint to bring all parts to one basic colour. Try a nice neutral gray , maybe something darker. Then build out under the window so that it looks like it starts at the ground. then a three sided peak on top of this. Making the window look as if it is part of the structure will really make a difference. Shutters will not work because of the nature of the window, two shutters on a three sided window just doesn't cut it.
I have seen lots of cute shutters with cut outs. You could also do window boxes and plant flowers and you could incorporate a design on the boxes also.
If you want to use shutters get Vinyl ones with a wood grain.If you live in a sunny area wood will dry and crack and need maintenance.Vinyl will add a pop of color and are very easy to install.
