Your not the first, there are a few threads here that explain repairs.

For anyone else worried about this happening, here's a post I wrote a while back about how to prevent it: https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...placement.html

That said, if you use a couple steel plates and sandwich the body metal between them (e.g. Denroll's solution) you should be OK.

Your situation is a little more complicated because the mounting points have already been ripped off of the subframe, so bolting the rear mounts back in place will be a bit "sloppy" since the holes are now too big for the bolts. If I were a shop I'd shy away from that type of work too.
