One of my M5's kidney grilles flew out into an intersection today. I managed to retrieve it to find all the lugs that hold it to the hood have broken off.

I went on amazon quickly to shop for replacement kidney grilles and can find plenty for the e39 but not necessarily e39 m5. Are these the same part? for example:
Amazon.com: BMW 5 Series E39 97-03 Front Grille - Chrome: Automotive

or is it different? If so is there somewhere affordable I can get a new one/pair?

Thanks

Those will work on your M5. If you get them can you let me know if they are completely chrome? Thanks.

thanks for the advice. I think I will get the black ones instead.

fyi there are two different versions - 96-00 and 01-03. Different part numbers, different appearance
