I am looking for Springs /coilovers, exhauast and strut bars. The original suspension settings are very comfortable and feels confident around corners but it just have the ugly looking gaps between the fenders and 18" rims. So I am looking for suspension that closes the gaps and with almost original settings.
The few I had tried are Sachs, H&R, Bilstein for suspension. Supersprint , remus for the exhaust. Most of them have the 545i which is before the 540i model.

I believe any parts that are made for the 545i should fit the 540i. The springs/coilovers available for the the 545i will also fit the 550i. I know that a B&B exhaust for a 545i will fit a 550i with some customization.
