Unhappy bent hub carrier on 2003 WRX

Hi,
I had my car looked at today on a rack in Neasden London by Wembley Tyres - its been veering right badly for some months now.
Turns out the problem was a bent hub carrier (rear drivers side).

What are my best options to move forward? Get a new one (£180-£220), or scour for a second hand one on ebay or breakers yards?

Would be grateful for any advice.

Best regards
Khalid

Get a new one if you can. You don't know the history of second hand parts and is a rather important piece of the car.
