On ebay there's a few places.
One place which I will be looking up soon have both front and rear for around £30 each

I had saved the search a while back but deleted as was not ready to buy yet.
Just search for e30 strut brace and you'll get loads of choice

Hot Tuning do some at a reasonable price I believe. Their 6-branch manifolds have been very popular on the Zone shop Evolve I understand so would expect the majority of their stuff to be equally good. They're available on Ebay...

I understand rear strut brace is pointless except for bragging rights. - Just means you have no bootspace. :)
...or is it?

Bragging rights? "I am an idiot, who knows nothing about suspension design" rights, is more like it!
