I can get you that part but it will not fit on a C32. Ask Jerry, he had one.

Carlsson produced a few front strut bars for show purposes only and do not sell them retail. Due to the unique strut housing assembly of the C class towers, this bar does not attach in the traditional way and holes must be drilled in the bell housing to secure it. The show bar does not support its load across the entire circumference of the strut tower and will cause deformation of the housing under extreme loads with possible cracking of the sheet metal. If your intended use is for show only, then you should be alright if you reproduce the mounting methods, but if you corner the car hard repeatedly you could have problems. Be careful not to interfere with the bearing assembly.
