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:

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

Anyone know what the white circles in the grill are for?? are they air ducts? fog lights? I think what ever they are they look amazing and I want em Where can I get em? And why have I not seen anyone else with them? Are they not as cool as I think they are?
Isn't that where the machine guns go?

I think they def. look good on an E39 M5. If someone can produce a pic of it in black, like the OP also wanted, on an E60, we may be able to make a decision.

Exactly! Believe it or not, the original idea used chrome sink drains from Home Depo tied to the brake ducts. A guy on M5board.com came up with it. It was several years before the after market offered such products. They probably just resold those same sink drains.
