FS: M3 front control arms, set of 4

All four front control arms from the M3. Very low mileage, had them on my car for less than 10k miles. Exactly as sold by hpautowerks:

Loved them, but I have to sell my car so I can get a baby mobile They seriously improve steering feel and handling by being firmer and adding more camber. They will make the ride rougher if you still have run flat tires, but are smooth if you've changed to better rubber.

$225 shipped

thanks for looking.

Justin

you need a real ball joint tool for the hub side. NOT THE FORK KIND!
regular wrenches for the chassis side.
A torque wrench to correctly tighten the bolts; they come loose, you crash.
Front will need alignment immediately. Can eye ball it close to drive to a shop.

I have all these tools and installation and removal where roughly an hour, but I didn't time myself. Very easy given the resulting change in performance...
