Has Anyone Seen a Diamond Golem?

Funny...
I suppose I should justify, but I'm not sure why...
I'm converting part of Greyhawk Ruins right now. On the level that the Greyhawk Demigods were imprisoned, there is a Diamond Golem that defends the area, and a sizable portion of Zagyg's treasure.
It increases in power as light shines on it.
My group has finished the RttToEE adventure, and after a few other adventures, they are currently around 18th level.
The challenge is to create a creature that is nearly indestructable. The will of a mad demi-god.
I really don't want the PC's to win at all. I want them to run! I really like the Monsters of Faerun idea of True Strike and Dispell Magic. I'm going to increase the size of the golem by one category and add a few feats, like Quickened Spell-like ability for the True Strike.
I'm also going to try and incorperate the increased statistics for greater light sources... in the end I should have three versions of the golem, although my party is going to end up fighting the hardest one because a few of them still use light to see.
If I actually make a stat block(s), I'll post them here later.

I saw one briefly. It was a dangerous encounter at a jewelry store. I was shopping for engagement rings for my girlfriend. The combat went something like this:
1. Burst forward to attack during the suprise pricing phase. I was caught flat footed.
2. Then it cast mirror image to make itself look like all the others.
3. I failed in my will save which resulted in confusion.
4. Eventually was I was charmed.
5. The golem then pickpocketed my wallet.
6. It then proceeded to attack my companion turning her into my fiance.
7. She too failed here delayed will save and was transformed into my wife.
8. It now posesses here and she keeps mumbling to herself, "My precious."
9. Remove curse does not seem to allow removal and discarding of the golem.
10. Legend has it the golem can only be destroyed by a rules lawyer in the court of divorce.
