Is that a rear brace turned upside down?

Full credit for having a go mate

If I had to do it I'd want it bolted onto the 2 bits of each turret

I have an OMP strut brace that would fit your car a treat. You could fit your current one on the rear and buy mine and be sorted! Good effort though.

i couldnt bolt it on to the two bolts with out bending the round bar beacuse the carburator was in the way. i just made it for the laugh im only 15!

as said before, 10/10 for effort, better than anything i could do!

and for bolting onto the other bolts, could you not add triangles to the ends of the brace, so it bolts to all four and the bar can still run round the back...
