Default Nightmare cost 2003 wrx suspension parts

Well the old red STi suspension on my 03 WRX has been dodgy for a while and has finally seized meaning the car has failed its MOT. I have bought a pedders set of suspension to fit, but the garage who I trust and have worked on my car many times, need several other parts. Getting in touch with Subaru UK has been very difficult for them. They have finally got in touch and have been told the parts amount to around £2000 which is shall we say unfortunate. They have given me the part numbers they need but I don't think these are the actual Subaru part numbers. I have been in touch with https://www.importcarparts.co.uk/ who can probably get me the parts but they don't recognise the part numbers. I have asked the garage to itemise the parts for me when they can. In the meantime can anyone identify these parts? Thank you.

What on earth else is required for £2K ???

i suspect those numbers are off the parts diagram and are a picture ref; rather than a pukka part number

Ah yes indeed, importcarparts said these were not Subaru part numbers and that Subaru would not divulge the part numbers?? You may be right about diagram refs. The high cost is clearly because directly from Subaru and over a barrel etc so I am hoping to find out exactly what I need to purchase cheaper elsewhere.
