I don't see why not. I don't think there is any difference in width....

Not 100%, because the M5 front bumper is wider due to wider front fenders of the M5.

However, there are aftermarket M5 lookalike bumpers that will fit.

If you're not anal about a perfect fit it's OK. I had it and the small shift in fender and bumper fitment was disturbing the first few days but eventually I stopped noticing it. You can search some old threads on this and you'll find some pictures I took on my setup.

As you already know ... sedan >< wagon ... some are interchangable but not all parts.

They may look the same from the rear door to the front of the car ...as far as the rear take a look the tail light shaped different, the sedan trunk opening shaped different then the wagon gate opening ...

You can fit E61 M5 rear bumper ...

You can compare your self between M5 sedan & wagon part #1 as far rear bumper shape:
