Correct, fronts are universal. Rear is not.

Alutech is the ZCP trim, believe this is just brushed aluminum

I found this post of yours from last year -

i know that scratch and dent one. After referencing with real oem, it’s actually silver cube for the ZHP, not the alu tec.

I thought the patterned one from ZCP cars was "cube" and the brushed alu, which is real metal, was the alu-tech.

Alu-tec is ZCP patterned trim, cube was different colors of 3d square patterned trims (perhaps on ZHP which I am no expert on) and brushed aluminum is what is pictured here.

It’s easy to get them mixed up, took me a while to learn the differences.

standard M3 - brushed aluminum
ZCP- alu tec (also called comp trim, diamond/hexagon etc)
ZHP- cube, which came in black or silver and is more of a print/pattern, and not actual cube cut outs.

Apparently, the trim is officially called Aluminum Shadow. One, brand new, armrest is listed at almost $900 on ebay, if that helps give perspective on pricing.

^ Yep this.
OP you’re selling E46 coupe “brushed aluminum” trim.
The “Alu tec” is ZCP trim.
