Is this a strut mount issue?

Had someone come into my lame lane this morning, got in a fight with a smallish curb. Wheels and tires are fine, popped the hood when I got home and saw this. Haven't had a chance to pull the strut yet. Hoping it's just the mount and I don't have to replace the strut.

If the strut still moves up and down I'd say it's ok and you just need a mount. I'd still pull it and make sure the shaft isn't bent.

I’d just install MM caster camber plates for another $100 and get an alignment.

Maximum motorsports CC plates. I would also replace the strut & look at your swaybar connecting rods & ball joints. If you hit the curb with enough force to pop the strut through the plate....
