Very nice to have you here! We can help you with a lot. Are you able to get Buick parts there in Europe? I am looking for a certain part for my car that I suspect may have to come from across the way.

1993 Buick Park Avenue - 197k - Some odds and ends done - Simply won't die
1994 Buick Regal - 78k - Bone stock - Always ready for a good kicking
1990 Oldsmobile 88 - Gone to a better place
Solong my Buick is a little bit junk but i hope to get it right back to light especielly for late winter or early spring - then a post some pics - today my car is really not ready to show them
To the parts - yes on european parts market i can find some parts to the Buick - lucky my its endless the same with potiac or another GM cars from this years. So long this "workparts" as brakes, shox, etc i found without problems. Problems komms when my right last lightbox (?) is broken - i must bay them probably direct in usa. But this is greatfully not a really big problem becose i have some frend in usa the byt this on ebay or market and send it to me
That way ... im realy lucky to this wonderfull welcoming from You and i stay hier to hold this contanct!
A question that is very important. There are 2 park avenues.
The European spec:
The American spec: (mine by the way)
Which do you have? That is important when you look for tail lights.
I am trying to find the front corner lights with no amber in them.

Wikipedia wrote:The base Park Avenue was available in Europe from 1991 until 1996 and varied from the North American version by featuring a truncated taillamps with separate amber turn signal indicators and red brake lamps, wider numberplate bezel, fitment of rear red fog lamps, headlamps with different lense pattern, white front side running markers, amber front turn signal indicators, side turn signal repeaters, "flagpole" external rear-view mirrors (mirrors on US version are fixed and do not turn), stronger seat belt and anchors, "softer" air bags, metric speedometer and gauges. They are to comply with the European regulatory and safety standards.

It seems to me that Most Buick's and H-body's rust out in that right rear wheel well just like mine did. So don't feel bad my car is mint and I have a rusted out wheel well in the same place you do.
