CF front lip, 20" wheels on Wifey's 2009 E63
finally got it done last week. If you guys want vendor info, post on the reply and I'll put their names on. Had good experiences with both the vendor for the front lip and the wheels. CF front lip required 15 bolts to get a tight fit, it's hallow but good looking... and good value! 
Looking at these new wheels though...

Yeah, me too...
like the 20" 64's or whatever they are calling them this week. That would be real tough for me to ratiionalize another 3-4 grand for the ADV's over those. Better? Sure. $4k better? Not too sure.

The website for the CF lip:
sold by collectioncap on EBAY
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BENZ-...Q5fAccessories
The wheels are from Eurotech luxury wheels on Amazon/Ebay
The ADV wheels are nice... but like you said, $$$, will have to use these for a while and see how they do first. And plus... wife only wants AMG look. So for now, no ADVs, just these replica AMG's. so far so good.

no, there is no more room to lower the car after the 20's were put in. They are barely clearing the fenders as is. Could have gone with smaller tires but then would be driving on a film of rubber, no good.

so far, no rubbing except when you turn wheel all the way to the right and make a 360 turn, ver very slight rubbing in the front left inside.. that' what' the tuner said when he tested it. It's not bad so... just ignoring it right now.
