What do you need one for? It's hardly a made-of-tin foil Saxo!

IIRC one of the reasons that MBs don't seem to have aftermarket strutbraces available, even from the likes of AMG, Brabus, Kleemann et al is that they are not required - either the chassis is stiff enough or it's simply not possible to stiffen the chassis using a strutbrace.

I have seen a W202 with a strutbrace (designed for another car and modified to fit) but the general consensus was that it was purely cosmetic. If that's what you want it for then you might have to do the same thing.
