and sorry for jacking the thread op... sort of
Just get them and do it all at once. I gambled and went without because of that as well, but the majority of Zs seem to need it. My first alignment without the arms showed the rear camber was still pretty aggressive at -2.5 with the stock camber bolts maxed out. Installed the arms and realigned a few months later and I'm back at -1.9.

My philosophy is that I might as well do it since I have all the tools out

Make sure to get a few dremel bits and eye protection when enlarging the toe bolt holes
