For the front at the minimum you should install new top mounts.

For the rear new shock mounts, body gaskets, and you can buy reinforcing plates for the shock mounts (about $15.00 for a pair) from Bavarian Autosport, Turner, etc. They help to spread the load of the shock mount to keep it from tearing up the body. Turner also lists reenforcements for the front from the M's.
