have you searched for one on the phpBB site?

It's obviously a hybrid, allready heavily modded version of the phpbb boards. Have a look at www.phpbb.com and www.phpbbhacks.com and see if anything on there might be a use.

May be of use posting on the support forum of the modded board first to see what they have to say. (looks like they are at http://www.phpbb2.de/ )

Before any attempt at adding anything, I'd ensure you have full backups of the database and web files incase it all goes pearshaped. Indeed might be easier to create a test forum, totally separate from you live one to try things out first.

Hmm, "as far as you know". I wouldn't like to trust that. You need to be certain. My experience of phpBB is the inbuilt database backup is not very reliable, especially on a modded board. It won't necessarily pick up all the mod added tables.
