Default Rear bumper mount replacement

I made a silly mistake and reversed into a wall, fortunately I was going very slowly, but some repairs are of course required!

The bumper mount on the drivers side rear is now bent and needs replacing (might be possible to bend it back, but not worth the hassle of removing it all to find out it can't be), I've seen this item on ebay but it's for the GDB Link to eBay bumper mounts. I think my car is a GDA (2006 WRX). Can anyone tell me if it'll still fit?

I've put a red box around the rough area where the mount I'm looking to replace is:

The item shown in your ebay link runs across the back of the car (item 6 below) not along the side as you have highlighted




Looks as if you may need item 16 -Bracket-rear bumper side, right, 57717FE640

or even 10 or 22
