Is my front suspension f***ed?

    So in an earlier post I had asked why the rod in my front suspension was showing at the top where the strut mount is. I came to the conclusion that it’s because it didn’t have a lower bushing on top of the dust boot. I’ve been driving it for about a week like that. So my question is, is my suspension shot? Or should I add those bushings asap to prevent further wear?
    I included a picture for context.

    I would just get the bushing in there and not worry. It may have banged around a bit, but unless you seriously offroaded it or something. I would not worry about it. It should be a large washer and a bushing, similar to what is on the top
