I'm pretty sure that CF Dinan CAI's were only available for the early year E39's.
The '01-'03 540's have a slightly moddified unit made out of black composite plastic.
Myself, I'm also planning on some Dinan mods, but am undecided on the CAI, due to the added risk of sucking standing water into the engine.

^ sucking water..? i've heard of that before but can it literally suck that much water even if its just...raining? a flood i can understand..but i wouldn't drive in a flood or a huge puddle anyway..

Not rain, but I've heard of larger puddles being a hazzard.
One can't always tell the depth of a puddle from the drivers seat.
