Lemforder suspension kit. How much to DIY?

Just replaced rear shocks today, suspension noise coming from the other parts is insane...ever since I lowered it it has gone downhill very fast..I'm not surprised. I'm embarrassed to drive the car any longer...
I'm planning to get this kit: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...e53-x520piecel
And the subframe bushings to get it all done once and for all.

Anyhow, how much can I do on my own ? I have read rear ball joints and subframe bushings are a pain and better left to the ones that have the tools...but is everything else pretty simple and straightforward?
I remember TMV has done his 4.8 with a Meyle kit if I'm not mistaken, if he could chime in on this that would be great.
Thanks
