The front wishbone and tension rods bolt right in, but the wishbone will change camber and require an alignment.

The rear guide rod and upper link arms will bolt right in and should not require an alignment.

The rear lower camber arm has been modified to work by HP Autowerks but will require new rear shocks since the lower mounting point is different on the M3.

The rear subframe bushings will bolt in, but the do need a special tool, and a significant amount of labor.
