Both lower control arms are different on factory 20" cars as they have larger tapers on the outer balljoints. They are both discontinued from Lemforder and TRW (the OE manufacturers) however the lower rears are still available from the Meyle HD range. They have a listing specifically for the 20" version.
The lower front for 20" is not available from anyone, however is dimensionally identical to the pre-facelift version. Unfortunately none of the parts catalogues seem to know this and all insist it doesn't exist (and that the PF one doesn't fit).
You can't buy these as a kit so you have to piece the set together from individual parts. I don'thave time to find part numbers right now, but I'm sure I've posted them before so hopefully some searching / google-fu will find it. Or have a look at the Meyle online catalogue, using a 1998 D2 to find the lower front, and 00> for everything else.
(yes I know FL was from 99, but the first 500 FLs had a weird suspension setup so 00> is foolproof)
