I'm going to Lebanon this summer for 2 months. During that time I plan to visit some junkyards and hopefully find some rare pieces not available to us in the states, for personal use or possibly sale to people back in the US. I'd like to compile a list of parts I can find on Lebanese/euro cars that are cool, rare, expensive, so help me out please!

Lebanon is a small country just below turkey, and for some reason or other, Lebanese have a love affair with German cars, meaning every other car here is either a Mercedes or a BMW. Since we're right next to Europe, we get European-spec cars. And also since Lebanon has plenty of winding roads and mountianous routes, BMW's are right in their element.
As a result, Lebanon is littered with used parts stores and junkyards that have about 40% BMW content, all of which is euro-spec. Euro grills for example, are about $10 for both if you find a good deal on them. Euro smileys are $100 for a pair, etc. In addition, there is a thriving Mtech replica market, with a replica Mtech II lower spoiler going for about as little as $60. Engines of all kinds are stupid cheap, too. Just the other day I found a mint E34 1991 M5 engine with all electronics, trans, and accessories, for just under $2.5k.
You get my drift? 8)This is your M20 on steroids:
