You'd have to change the front bumper so it could have the yellow reflectors, the intake to the standard version, switch to OBD, change the headers, change the cats, change the rear glass. Everything else you could probably leave on, don't take my word on it though.

The other way would be buy a US M3, bring over your csl. Do a mass part swap so the vin would be a US vin, however all the parts would be from your csl on the US M3. If you did it this way buy a CS (ZCP) so you don't have to change the steering rack. Also a couple of other parts are shared with the competition package M3. That's the way I'd do it, since ZCP M3's can be had for less then 20,000 usd.
That sounds like butchery

Swap plates and vin, Much easier
