I've got that trim on my E63. It's called black birdseye maple, option code 732. Finding pieces to match is damn near impossible, but if your just doing a steering wheel, should be okay. Trying to match pieces that are installed next to each other is a major PITA if not impossible, especially if one of the pieces is new.

Looks exactly like mine and I looked on my VMI to get the name and code number right. They may have used a different wood on CL class, but I don't think until later, and then the Ash was matte finish.
A google search turned up poplar, burl walnut and birds-eye maple oem options. There may be more, but that's what I could find. The only one in that color was the maple.
