Looks like a Dinan setup for the E39 M5. I’d like to know if there’s a kit before I go down to Home Depot and buy some sink plugs & ducts

No More Project M3.
It looks like a factory M3 front bumper or a replica. The only thing that doesn't look stock is the extra duct work (assuming those rings actually lead to ducts, which they probably don't).
If you like how this looks, I'd just figure out how to install those rings.
Most actual brake duct kits either use the factory ducts or sometimes use the fog light cutouts.
This car's setup would require cutting holes in the radiator ducting to route these extra brake ducts back out to the wheels, which would potentially cause cooling issues for the car.
In other words, the car comes with TWO cutouts per side for a potential brake duct, and this guys felt the need to block one of those off, not use the second one, and then add a third - a third that causes collateral damage to the engine cooling system.
I'll also point out that even on the E36 PTG M3 race car, they just used the factory ducts (and factory size).
If you like how this looks, go ahead and add the rings to the grill of that lower opening. But I'd avoid trying to make it functional.
-Josh: 1998 S54 E36 M3/4/6 with most of the easy stuff and most of the hard stuff. At least twice. 271k miles. 1994 E32 740il with nothing but some MPars. 93k miles.
Looks like soup cans made into deer deflectors. Lol
My opinion only, but I always thought that those were the dumbest looking things on e39 M5s. Then again I always thought the square fog lights on the 540s looked better than the round ones on the M5 as well.
Moral of my post, my preference is rectangular and square styling features. Especially for an e36 that is all rectangles to begin with.
