Probably fogs. Who knows, might be horn too, lol.

It looks weird to me. Probably better without it.

They would be considered the brake cooling duct mod for an E39 with M5 bumper. Its a pretty popular thing for E39 models. Take a look here:

Really noone likes these?? On a blacked out car w/ black holes haha. I think it would look very subtle yet will give a more aggressive look.

AFAIK its just a design and maybe an additional airflow or something just like 545ace had on his car

Would I just have to buy the pieces and have them fitted into my original grill or is there a whole grill I would need to buy?
