dang dude, post some pics :)

Advice on mods really depends on what you want to do with it and, naturally, how much you want to spend.

Just get it from German Ebay. They can be found there every now and then.
It's odd if diesels cannot be found from Greece, is it because you have worlds highest car taxes? We had only third highest just after Denmark ;)
