The focus of this thread is about that particular grille part. I think you're widening the scope of comparison.
Again, besides the OEM LCI M5 front, both stock and Mtech's grille portion is separated into two. That is what is being discussed here.

There is no difference between our Mtech Rep and the OE mtech.

And the M5Tech we sell, is basically visually an M5 bumper but with fogs:

I have a SN: If I have a non-M5 (I have an '08 LCI 535i) and I want to put M5 Wheels on the car like what are in post #1, second pic...Is it true that I need 4 front rims from the M5? Or can I just buy the 4 rims as normal (Staggered front to back)?
Sorry for the thread jacking!

it's the line. One sweeps up with the lights, the other sweeps across.
And there is no difference between an Mtech Rep and an OE Mtech.
M5Tech is a big difference as shown above.
