Right side is slightly tweaked at front mount, left strut mount threads need cleanup at very top. Have a look at the pics. Located in Seattle jmschneeman@msn.com

Probably a stupid question but would these fit on a non m-car?

yes

Hmm I do need replacement CAs... what's the mileage on these? Can one be untweaked or is the structure too compromised?

I would be pretty wary of this. Aluminum doesn't just bend and flex like steel does. The area that is tweaked is now already structurally weakened, and bending it back to straight again will put even more strain on the area. When aluminum bends, it actually more or less "splinters" at the weakened area, and further tweaking of that area will cause it to become weaker and weaker.

Doesn't the BMW CCA recommend that e30 m3 track cars replace their control arms every two years? So racing will fatigue the arms too, right?

Ball joints are non-replaceable on these, right?

Not sure on repairability, I bought them long ago and never used them. sold my E30 so they've been pretty much garage art. Left side is good, right side maybe, I think I've priced them accordingly.

This is what I figured... but thought it was worth asking! GLWS
