some answers!

norm: The M5 is Titan SIlver i belive

punkster: the Sport package for the E60 5 series has a very similar look to the m5 bumper, but its not exactly the same, the sport kit has some extra lines in the shape of the bumper around the foglamp area and the center "mouth" grill has a slightly different shape to it

bzzbenz: the black cover is a "new" bmw M trrademark I think,... its introduced on the E60M5. What it is, is a color marking for racing purposes; alot of times on the racetrack, the way racing teams identify similar cars from each other quickly is by putting a different color on the underside of the mirrors. I guess BMW decided to put the black there to point out the racing heritage of this car, kind of like the similarly useless side grills all M cars have now.
