Going to be purchasing a set of KW V1's pretty soon and was just wondering if I'll need anything else ride quality wise aka camber plates(if they even make them for my car) also if I'll need to replace bumpstops, just don't want it to bottom out at all. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Car is 2011 e90 335 X-Drive.
Thanks guys

Love mine, makes the car look 100% better. My wife doesn't like the ride says it's like I have no suspension but she drives a Honda mini van.

You don't need camber plates unless you are trying to add negative camber out of factory spec (more than -0.5) for performance reasons. You could use M3 arms to achieve -1.5 camber. Basically unless you racing there is no need for camber plates but if you wanted a street performance upgrade you would use M3 arms to get another -1.0 deg of camber. The coilovers come with their own bump stops.

I checked some suspension upgrades, I couldn't find some front M control arms that would fit my xi, I did find the rear M control arms / M guide rods / rear M subframe bushing kit & rear M sway bar kit..do the M3 front control arms not fit the xi's?

Front m3 arms nor sway bar fit the xi. Only the rear m3 bits fit. You won't need camber plates or bump stops to run the v1s.
