The easiest way would be to go over to realoem.com and compare part numbers.

How would that help? The part numbers are going to be different because the parts are different.

Tension arms are very different looking. Control arms look similar but have different part numbers.

535xi 12/07
RealOEM.com BMW E60N 535xi Frnt axle support,wishbone/tension strut

M5 12/07
RealOEM.com BMW E60 M5 Frnt axle support,wishbone/tension strut

I'd like to know if the tension bush is interchangeable - appears the M5 isn't a hydrobearing.

Curious about that too. I was looking at n54 turbos and every model has different part numbers. I can't belive they use like 10 different turbochargers. Who the heck knows though.
