Yes one of our members 1esquire has it on his e60.

I think its different material though.

I also think it looks good still to, been thinking about getting a pair.

Correct, these are the same ones that I bought. Here's a link to the pics of my car with them installed:

I will say that they they fit perfect and look great, in my opinion (at least for being ABS and not the real deal). The price was certainly right. One word of caution, however, is that they are pretty cheaply made. When I was trying to install them, one of the tabs completly broke off (not just the center "flex" piece, but the whole thing). I was able to super-glue the tab back on, and then install the grilles, and they fit snug w/o any problems. If you do get these, just handle with care.

They do look great installed, however.

I bought one of those a few months ago.
Came to my door after 2.5 weeks.
I partially opened the box to see how it looks like and they seem SO CHEAP.
Went home and looked at them and the clips (6 flimsy plastic clips) are broken.
I emailed the seller and didn't answered me. So I filed at ebay for a refund.
2 months later, I still haven't got my refund yet.

I wouldn't recommend this thing. Even if it wasn't broken, I wouldn't put this in my car.
I am thinking of getting one of the matte black grilles found here when I get my money back:
